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.

Literaly Skynet surveillance database from a Peter Thiel owned company. The height of Liberal faced governments, an identidity behind all similar legislation, is to pursure total nazi control over all of us.
