Today around 10:30 PST a bot army invaded the Hive Discord and tried to push this garbage down our throats in private DMs.

Just a reminder:

Never trust security issues like this from sources like Discord. This is why we have cryptographic security. Legitimate messages like this will always be posted directly to the blockchain via trusted accounts.

Gee, I wonder who is doing this...

That's about as far as my speculation goes.
