It's worrying that they don't specify in which cases they require identity checks.

#13You will be reported to DHS if you ask Claude about Maven and the bombing of girls schools in Iran.

#14Ugh what a disaster. This is so Anthropic can enforce bans.
The future has arrived, in which you are only allowed to program a computer in any meaningful way requires total identification and permission.
What a tragedy that the amazing capabilities of LLM assisted programming come with such disgusting and reprehensible requirements and impositions.
So they can ban you from some minor infringement of their usage policies and you'll never be allowed to program again.
"Mr Anderson, it has come to our attention that you have been programming computers under an assumed identity. As you are aware this is a felony under the computer fraud and hacking act and you will be sentenced to four years in jail and may never use a computer again.". Yes laugh it up.

I can guess at least one valid:
* preventing North Korea, China, Russian, Iran and etc. actors from accessing service. They absolutely use workarounds to access AI, e.g. I bet there are companies who are proxy between Anthropic and those countries.
I imagine there will be quite some false positives while identifying those.

#16Why do companies keep working with Persona even though they have proven time and time again to be untrustworthy?
Persona is easy to implement, has all the compliance requirements, and is in line with market prices. ID verification will always be an afterthought, unfortunately.

#17Identity verification to use an API?? And via Persona? I can't say if it's real. But if they really try to enforce that, I guess goodbye Anthropic forever.
OpenAI does identity verification too. I don’t know if they use Persona but they should be considered all equally as invasive.

#18"Being responsible with powerful technology starts with knowing who is using it."
In other words: they want to create a private web and sniff-after-people system. Today the EU also introduced an app for age verification. They also constantly say how this is ... voluntary.
Well, I guess we all know the direction. Let's have a look at this in a few years, because there may be a few ... suspicions.
With regards to Claude the question is: WHY do they want to sniff off user data exactly?

They use Persona for their new "Trusted Access for Cyber": https://chatgpt.com/cyber, at least according to the FAQ

The "Why did my account get banned after verification?" section gives some reasons:
- Repeated violations of our Usage Policy
- Account creation from an unsupported location
- Terms of Service violations
- Under-18 usage
