Dear @runicar
I would also like to ask you a question. What is your opinion on KYC required by so many airdrops?
Personally I strongly believe that each crypto/ICO that require KYC should be required by law to receive licence that would allow them to proceed with KYC. And in order to receive that licence, they would have to prove to local authorities that they follow some security standard and all collected informations are safe.
My biggest worry is the fact, that right now anyone can claim that they are "forced by regulators" to proceed with KYC and this is currently the easiest way to collect our personal data by 3rd parties. And we cannot know how well secured those datas are. We cannot even know if company is legit and isn't planning to sell those data to another 3rd party.
Have a great friday :)
Yours, Piotr
That's a valid concern @crypto.piotr and one I'm confronted with each and every time when an airdrop asks for a full KYC. I'm not overly concerned about them selling the data but I am concerned about identity theft.
For that reason, I decline to participate in any airdrop which isn't hosted by a credible company that has already been in business for a while and has built a name for itself. Those are highly unlikely to risk trashing their reputation for our ID's and they are the only ones to whom I'll hand over my information.
That's just my two cents on it. What do you think?
Have a good one,
cheers!

I just realized that I never had a chance to read and reply this comment. Not even simple "thank you". Sorry about it.
