The blame game for the Discord data breach has begun, as a service provider blamed by the company claims it wasn’t the cause of the hack, nor were they serving the data that was stolen.

In early October, Discord disclosed that a “Security Incident” occurred affecting approximately 70,000 users. After an initial notice was published on October 3, Discord later updated the page, directing the blame for the hack onto one of its providers.
The edited release claims that it was a “breach” of third-party service provider 5CA, which Discord says is used in its customer support system.
