100K pushups #Bitcoin changes you

Oh, of course! Because we all know that 'highest quality partners' are absolutely immune to data leaks. It's so reassuring to hear that you, as fellow Bitcoiners, have magically found the perfect solution that no one else in the data security world has managed to achieve. Truly comforting!

'highest quality partners' is not a solution.

KYC is the illicit activity!!!

KYC is the illicit activity!!!

KYC is the illicit activity!!!

Imagine a "friend" invites you to a party and says: "Hey, you already gave me your address when we sent cards. So why don't you just let me into your house whenever I want? It's not like your privacy is important!"

This analogy perfectly illustrates the issues with full Know Your Customer (KYC) processes by highlighting how intrusive and abusive such behavior can be. Here is an in-depth explanation of why companies should reject this practice and consider leaving a country where these measures are enforced, rather than simply complying and presenting it to people as if it’s not a big deal:

1. **Privacy and Trust**:

- **Analogy**: The "friend" uses the existing confidentiality (address for cards) as justification to intrude further into the person’s privacy (permanent access to the house).

- **Explanation**: Customers already share some information in good faith. Full KYC processes demand even deeper personal insights, which can erode customers' trust and sense of security. Companies have a responsibility to protect this trust rather than exploit it.

2. **Excessive Data Requests**:

- **Analogy**: The "friend" demands extensive access (permanent house access) that is unnecessary for the original interaction (sending cards).

- **Explanation**: Companies should limit themselves to the minimum necessary data. Full KYC requirements often go beyond what is necessary for the service or transaction, making them a needless burden and invasion.

3. **Security Risks**:

- **Analogy**: By giving the "friend" permanent access to the house, the risk of security issues increases.

- **Explanation**: Collecting and storing comprehensive personal data makes companies attractive targets for cyberattacks. A data breach could have catastrophic impacts on customers whose data falls into the wrong hands.

4. **Government Pressure and Compliance Costs**:

- **Analogy**: The "friend" might be motivated by external pressure (hypothetically from an overreaching organization) to demand more access.

- **Explanation**: Strict KYC regulations are often imposed by government authorities. Companies need to invest substantial resources to comply with these regulations, leading to higher operating costs and reduced focus on core competencies.

5. **Ethics and Corporate Values**:

- **Analogy**: The "friend" ignores basic principles of respect and privacy.

- **Explanation**: Companies that uphold ethical principles should oppose practices perceived as invasive or abusive. They should prioritize their corporate values over short-term compliance.

6. **Competitiveness and Responsibility**:

- **Analogy**: The "friend" dismissively says the request is "not a big deal," disregarding the other person’s feelings.

- **Explanation**: Companies that take the protection of customer data seriously can differentiate themselves through their safe and responsible handling of personal data. They have a responsibility toward their customers that goes beyond mere legal compliance.

Ultimately, it is often more beneficial for a company to consider relocating rather than operating in a market that enforces excessive privacy intrusions. Customers appreciate transparent and respectful treatment. Companies should uphold these values to foster long-term trust and loyalty.

First of all gfy is not an insult it is a statement and I stand by it. Secondly Gio I do not have a need to talk to anyone privately I say what I want where I want, No one took my work. I read both so I see similarities. And once again GFY!

Bro, if someone use official relai acc to share his personal blog he included the company. I don’t care about views. Don’t dig yourselves even further. I am my own “Boss” and I have no account on ex Twitter. Best for you is to stay inactive on Nostr like you were for past 6 months. You earned your paycheck for this month. 🤙

The official company page was used to share the article so they basically have something to do with it, even though it was probably not the management’s fault- and I understand why they were bothered with it. I would be too.

I would be totally honored and flattered if my work is an inspiration to others to be honest!

Considering the fact 2/3 authors follow me on LinkedIn it is a bit unusual that they “never even heard” of my work, but let’s say it was a coincidence and call it a day- can’t go into the same drama for two days. It’s not a big deal.

Now, I’m a recruiter and not a social media expert, but I guess when you use an account that represents your employer, to post things on their behalf, you should stay away from:

- claiming something is 100% true unless it’s the same person just under a different name, but still looks unprofessional.

- using words such as “even” - sounds disrespecting, and considering this is now an official note from an organization, the tone of your words is super important.

P.P.S. The same organization I provide with a lot of love and support publicly by sharing the content, and liking, as well as in a more private manner, for example, when I extended my respect and support to Relai team in person, in Prague conference last year. I will continue to support Relai’s work because I think it’s awesome. I also like the article, it’s easy to read and cool.

Have a great weekend!

I don’t care about visibility. I am off social media except Nostr. But I am glad boss made you hop on here after 6 months of inactivity. Secondly no one called him fraud, next time when he copy someone give credit. 🤙

Finally!

After a lot of doubt and overthinking

Also a lot of trial and error, I did it

I set up my Lightning⚡️Node and created a first (probably not the last) channel aswell 🥳

In hindsight it wasn’t all that difficult (easy to say now) but I guess that’s just me, I need to overthink a lot before taking the leap 🤷🏼‍♂️ 😅

Now I still need to get comfortable with all that, and I still don’t understand it to the fullest.

But I’m happy that I did it 🤩

Jordi, I don’t care what he said read the book than read his “personal blog” he shared via business sm account. I understand you have to defend him. 😂
