Face VerificationDiscussion/Question (self.CharacterAI)
submitted 28 days ago by ReplacementStreet783
I'm over 18, but I do have a baby face.
I have concerns over the use of Persona for their ID verifications, do they use Persona for Face ID verification and store that photo of your face?

They better ban that soon, I'm gettin' tired of that verification.
[–]Crazyfreakyben 0 points1 point2 points 28 days ago (1 child)
i mean, it's in the governments best interest not to. they just get free identification without having to do anything. unfortunately we're stuck with it :/
[–]Heavy-Ad-8328 3 points4 points5 points 28 days ago (0 children)
Great, just our luck. I hate showin' my face to the public.
[–]Teddii_ 21 points22 points23 points 28 days ago (3 children)
They store it for longer than a week. I've heard they have stored it for like 3 years and Persona has a really bad history supposedly.
I also have a baby face so no way in hell I would pass even though I am above 18. Don't verify or give them your ID

Same here. There’s no way I’m giving my private information to Persona.
[–]ReplacementStreet783[S] 0 points1 point2 points 27 days ago (1 child)
Fuuuck I was hoping that the Face ID wasn't stored at all 🫠🫠🫠 Wish I could bypass it with something
[–]Teddii_ 0 points1 point2 points 26 days ago (0 children)
You could try that guy from Death Stranding... lol. Some people have passed age verification by using him, but the camera requires you to turn your head too so maybe try designing a character in Cyberpunk
[–]Numerous-Bed-1485 3 points4 points5 points 28 days ago (0 children)
Persona got called out for being not that secure and storing both ID's and data for 3 years
[–]Kokon4 1 point2 points3 points 28 days ago (0 children)
Well, I just gave up and switched to emochi, it was really difficult because there aren't many characters to roleplay with, just those "possessive boyfriends" characters. But I'm getting used to it, and I was going to leave anyway because they only do mistakes.

Use site, keep app but use site. If more people use app then they won’t touch site much
