Use of MessageLoggers is very controversial in the community, with multiple [[client mods]] such as [[BetterDiscord]] and [[Powercord]] banning them outright. | |||
Commonly stated reasons are that they "violate user privacy" and "Discord's privacy policy and API terms"<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://betterdiscord.app/FAQ|title=BetterDiscord FAQ point 11}}</ref>, with multiple sources claiming usage of loggers poses a risk to your account. | |||
However, there are no documented cases of users getting banned for just using loggers and such plugins still see wide usage across clientmods. | |||
Furthermore, Discord's Developer terms of service only apply to "access to and use of the [Discord] APIs"<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://discord.com/developers/docs/policies-and-agreements/developer-terms-of-service|title=Discord Developer Terms of Service}}</ref>. Since logger plugins function entirely offline, these terms can't really be applied to them. | |||
