Some very clever persons have discovered what Persona do with the data they receive. Here is a very good article about what they have found: https://vmfunc.re/blog/persona I haven't finished to read the article, but it talk about surveillance, watchlist, facial recognition to check if you look like a politically exposed person, check if you are a "terrorist"… And Persona is used by other services. Like OpenAI. (If I understand correctly, I do not use IA) [2/2] #Persona #OpenAI #Surveillance

So, Discord have started to experiment the next step of their age verification: Send "age verification" data to the company Persona. Persona, in which Peter Thiel have investments. Peter Thiel is the founder of Palantir, a data and surveillance company that collaborate with USA federal agencies. Including ICE. (And their is a lot of other things to tell about Thiel.) But wait, there is more about Persona.

Age verification is not en never was about protecting children. It's about mass surveillance. "Once a user verifies their identity with Persona, the software performs 269 distinct verification checks and scours the internet and government sources for potential matches, such as by matching your face to politically exposed persons (PEPs), and generating risk and similarity scores for each individual. IP addresses, browser fingerprints, device fingerprints, government ID numbers, phone numbers, names, faces, and even selfie backgrounds are analyzed and retained for up to three years." https://www.therage.co/persona-age-verification/ #AgeVerification #MassSurveillance #Persona #Thiel #ChatControl #Discord

#Persona to "lider" w swojej działce. Sprawdziłem stronę www, korzystają z ich usług m. in.: #LinkedIn #OpenAI #Twilio #Reddit #Etsy #Udemy #Coursera Więc moja interpretacja jest taka, że do danych z tych serwisów Palantir ma dostęp. A przez Palantir służby 🤷‍♂️ Źródło: https://withpersona[.]com/customers
