In an unexpected turn of events, gaming platform Discord has declared its readiness to fight back against the subpoena issued by Take-Two Interactive, seeking to unmask the infamous GTA 6 leaker. While Judge Andrew L. Carter Jr., of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, granted Take-Two's request to subpoena Discord and Microsoft last week, Discord has yet to receive the official document. In a tweet, Discord marketing director Ryan K. Rigney revealed that when they do, they will assess its validity and scope before responding. The subpoenas were issued under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), alleging copyright infringement related to the 'CyberLeek' account, which is believed to be behind the GTA 6 leaks. The subpoena requests identifying information associated with user accounts that were members of several Discord servers, including 'discord.gg/darkviperau,' a server linked to Australian GTA content creator Matthew "Matt" Judge. Judge has denied any wrongdoing, and privacy advocates are concerned that the subpoenas could expose users who did not leak or upload GTA VI footage but were part of conversations within Discord servers discussing the leaks. Reclaim The Net, a group advocating for free speech and privacy, criticized the Discord subpoena, stating that it is being used to hunt for identities rather than targeting infringement. They argue that Take-Two is not limiting its targets to those uploading the leaks but is instead aiming at entire communities and channels existing in the same Discord server as the alleged leakers. The subpoena for Twitter/X is yet to be signed off, while it's unclear if Microsoft has been served with Take-Two’s subpoena. As the GTA 6 leaks continue, there are fresh concerns that CyberLeak might release significant story spoilers. Neither Rockstar nor Take-Two have issued a statement regarding this matter. Wesley Yin-Poole, Director of News at IGN, has reached out for comment. GTA 6 is scheduled to launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S on November 19, 2026.
