Open Collective have ceased using Persona. 🙏 Here's part of their rather full response https://opencollective.com/opensource/updates/on-kyc-checks-and-persona > Finally, we will halt the use of Persona for identity verification until we are able to implement the alternative arrangements described above. > Thank you to everyone in our community who shared their perspective. We hear you, and we are grateful to be a part of a community that cares so deeply about transparency and accountability. Openness is at the heart of everything we do. @opencollective@mastodon.opencollective.com

    They also note: > In addition, we will be identifying alternative providers for identity verification services, both in the US and in Europe, in order to give our European users the additional peace of mind that their identity documents do not pass into American processors.
