We are not using your identity data to train our models.
I have a bridge to sell you
We are not sharing your identity data with anyone else. Verification data stays between you, Persona, and Anthropic, except where we’re legally required to respond to valid legal processes.
We won’t share with anyone else except these five other people.
“we’re only telling Peter Thiel!”
sanitation — 7 月 8 日这个时间点挺微妙的，正好是很多创业公司年中 review 的节点。我猜 Anthropic 可能是想避开 Q3 的业务高峰期，但对那些依赖 Claude 做 MVP 的早期团队来说，突然的验证要求可能会打乱 sprint 计划。你有没有考虑过，如果部分开发者因为这个政策转向其他平台（比如国内的某些「白名单」模式），Anthropic 的市场份额会不会受影响？我们之前做过一个案例分析，看类似政策变动对 SaaS 工具迁移率的影响，这里有个简版 如果你想看具体数据的话。
Nowhere on that page do they state what those capabilities are…
Seeing, in a row, an age ID article, Google’s QR captcha, and this. It’s all the same shit.
Capital is so fucking thirsty to know exactly who you are and what you’re doing every second of every day. Every rich and powerful person on earth is pushing governments and companies to get a live 24/7 camera feed of your asshole. Privacy will become impossible and resistance will become a crime.
Reward them for the world they’re making.
They’re desperate because they’re losing their grip. It may look like they’re trying to tighten their grip, and they are, but it’s because they’re slipping, so they’re also scrambling, and panicking. Attitudes are shifting and shit is getting bad faster than they were prepared for. Their hubris is catching up to them. Their tech-utopian dreams are now starting to contact and conflict with reality, and reality is going to run them over without even slowing down. Musk and all the rest going so quickly from tens of billions to hundreds of billions to now trillions (in a matter of years!) is not a sign of consolidation of wealth, it’s a sign of the currency they are depending on starting to lose meaningful, realistic value. It’s starting to look like hyperinflation for billionaires, and it’s going to end the same way. Ironically they’ve already gutted and robbed the and tried to automate and replace the middle and working classes so extensively that it’s probably going to shield us from the worst of it. It will be bad, but not as bad as it could be. Additional social support is going to be required on the other side, but we’ll also be able to take advantage of some of the very technologies and cost-cutting measures they’ve been using to replace us.
I appreciate your positivity here
My positivity varies, honestly, the world’s rough right now. But the thing I keep coming back to is to realize how many of us are actually on the same page, as much as they’ve tried to divide us and keep us divided, controlling even the information we see, most of us are all still ultimately seeing almost the same things. We’re not divided on the things that matter, the things that are real. Most people hate AI. Most people hate what the tech companies and billionaires are doing. Most people hate what the government fascists are doing. Divided we fall, united we are unstoppable. They have not managed to completely break our grip on reality, and it’s that same relentless and unstoppable reality we all see that is showing us that we are all in this together, that we have more in common with each other than we do against each other.
Money, democracy, government, police, nations, these are not physical constants of the universe, they are just collective decisions we’ve made. If they’ve been corrupted, and I think they have, then they don’t have to continue to exist in the shape and form and traditions we originally made them in. We made the rules, we can change the rules. They continue to exist as they are because we all agree they do. Without our active agreement and acceptance, they mean nothing and they will have to adapt to civil pressure or die. Together, we can change them. The powers that be will not like it if we decide to change them, and they will quite probably try to use violence, but try is the operative word here, and if enough people are on the same page, and we can get enough of the people they would use to implement that violence on the same page, it won’t even matter, and the violence probably won’t even happen. Revolution does not have to be violent, it just has to be united. Unite the people, and this can all change. Sure, there will likely be some violence after all, but we have to accept that there already is some, and people are already dying in concentration camps and in wars that are far more pointless than the struggle to take control back of our own futures.
We have ended kingdoms. We have ended slavery. We have ended segregation. We can end this.
The revolution will not be televised – in fact it can’t be. The revolution is taking place at dinner tables, in workplaces, in conversations between real people interacting with other real people on a daily basis talking about how much they hate and are affected by what is happening right now and how much we all want it to change. It doesn’t have a manifesto, it doesn’t have a leader, it’s not scheduled at some date and time, nobody is pulling these strings, and yet I think it will happen just as inevitably as anything as long as people can stay united about the change we want to see in the world. A lot of the masks have been pulled off, and we can now see people and things for what they really are. Dispelling these illusions is painful and frightening, but it’s also necessary for real change to happen.

Identity verification helps us prevent abuse, enforce our usage policies, and comply with legal obligations.
So. You have chosen death.
Oh hey something I’d never fucking use anyway
And it’s Persona, the thrill run identify verifier that sends your data to the US and other governments, and lulls your credit report, and more.
You gotta be kidding me. I’m not doing it.
I’m switching to glm 5.2 or kimi plans and never touching anthropic.Heads up, Kimi is the only one that requires a fucking email to opt out of having your data used for training. Everyone else has a toggle switch.
GLM 5.2 is pretty nice according to benchmarks though.
Yeah one thing I immediately find offputing is kimi registration options - it’s phone number or Gmail. Why? Why not any email?
That’s why I’m likely going GLM. Also I’m shocked how cheap deepseek API is.
Yeah but they don’t mention what capabilities. Could be one, two, many, or all.
That’s how you know this bullshit is to comply with the police state and nothing else.
I’ll be interesting to see how this works for companies using this tool. Does anthropic expect that every employee will freely upload their passport, just to continue to work???
Probably not, as they have a level of guarantee from the company that everything is work related and nationalities are verified. If anything were to be flagged they would send it to the admin.
I would be much less reluctant to do this for work, since I, well, pretty much only do work stuff on my work laptop with it. But how is this verification supposed to work? I am very not okay with some random company doing this. Especially if they retain the data.
There is also zero reason for doing this. I am very clearly over 18 and my account is tied to a company mail address…
If there’s one thing I imagine this tech would be pretty good at, it would be profiling writing styles. Given enough samples, I don’t see why a personal account without ID wouldn’t be able to be mapped with high confidence to a corporate account with ID. Especially if connections come from the same region.
This is probably certifying your nationality as the US government has placed anthropic under export restrictions.
If they don’t do that for GPT 6 when it lands, we’ll know it’s just retaliation for the whole thing where Anthropic didn’t want to give the US military unrestricted access or whatever (as they claim anyway)
That’s like 50% of it. The other half is Amazon running to the Whitehouse and showing how you could backdoor requests past the guard rails simply by asking their most powerful models to “review this code”
This sounds like an issue for your employer, not for you
They can just go fuck themselves.
