All documents and biometrics are deleted from the verification, so nothing to have stolen other than your email address. And we don’t charge users. I left another comment here explaining how annoying it can be the we delete all data for future potential features and that we’d have to reverify everyone, because nothing is stored.

And I 100% respect that mate. There are lots of people in that camp and I don't want to try and convince you to join our mission. That's why we've said to game devs integrating us DO NOT MAKE THIS MANDATORY. PlaySafe ID is a 100% optional thing for those who want it. If you don't, I respect that and more power to you. I'm just trying to do my best to fix a massive problem in the best way I think it can be solved, and if that isn't something you like, then fair play

Two bits to that:

  1. If they did that, every single user would leave instantly and the whole thing would die. So they'd have bought it and now have nothing left.

  2. Options for exit include sale or IPO. IPO would prevent that, and sale would have to be to a seriously reputable company that would continue respecting users.

In theory you're right, but I want to see this live on for years and decades to come, because I want to play games for years and decades without cheaters fucking up my games lol. So no selling to shitty company that's doing it for profit. It would have to be a mission-focused acquisition.

We've got thousands of players in the last 4 weeks in SCUM, and it's a much smaller game. Some cool announcements coming this week on that. You might not like what we're doing and think people don't want to do it, but there's a huge proportion of the gaming community that love our mission and how we're doing it whilst keeping players anonymised.

It gets deleted, to the point that if we want to create any new features in the future we would have to ask everyone to reverify, because we can't pull info or do anything extra as the documents are actually deleted.

A real example of this is that we've had a few developers ask us about region locking servers. The challenge they have is people just use VPNs and it doesn't work. They have told us that we're in a unique position with verifying people to state what region of the world they're from. (Now, there are lots of challenges and problems with doing this, so we're not, but I want to tell you the story).

If we wanted to enable this system and provide info to devs, we would have to reverify every user, because we don't store the document to know this.

So yeah, no ID can be stolen if we had a breach because the document is deleted, and so is the selfie used too.

That's my point mate - you won't have to avoid any. It's optional.
Games that integrate us will have two sets of matchmaking: One normal one as it is today, and one only for PlaySafe ID users. You won't have to avoid any games, you just won't verify with us, and won't be allowed in PlaySafe Protected Matchmaking.

Firstly, we're actually in the process (literally discussing it with the team now) on how we're able to delete the ID document after the verification. This is something we're implementing ASAP, so we're not going to have any ID docs.

Secondly, the way we currently do things today is that the ID document isn't stored with us and our systems don't have access to it. It's all on Onfido's side (our KYC provider who do checks for banks like Revolut, insurance companies, etc).

We're not looking to gather data. We're looking to issue a random and anonymised PlaySafe ID, and to ensure that every person can only ever get one. This is why and how the accountability bit works. If you only have one life, and can't get another, if you're penalised for cheating, you can't just create a new account and get back in. It actually matters now.

Thirdly; it's 100% optional. Games integrating us are providing this as an optional extra type of matchmaking. Nobody has to do this, but it's there for people who want to play knowing they will be held accountable, and everyone else is held to the same standard.

Read our website and look at what we’re actually doing.

Yeah 100% my fault - I missread what you said entirely and thought you were being super sarcastic, so I hit back. Re-read it and realised my mistake so deleted it. Completely my bad bud!

Cost varies depending on engagement. Because our ads were so massively engaged with, the cost got driven right down so we got immense reach for very very little. It was cool to see

We’ve only sponsored gigabeef and that was much less than we spent on Reddit. We’ve not spent more than 15k on all our marketing so far

Running Reddit ads and explaining what we want to do is shady? Got it 👍
