RE: NOIA Network - Decentralized Alternative to Content Delivery
Valuable update! It's amazing how quickly the testnet spreads! The KYC part i dont like, especially i wonder as for a mere technical purposes this is really necessary.
Thanks for reading my post!
I disagree with some aspects of the KYC form but I also can appreciate others. The KYC really helps identify individuals and make sure that, in my understanding, it's a 1:1 ratio. One person to one account similar to Steemit. I don't think that they want multiple people signing up under different names and email addresses to take advantage of the Air Drop. It's also becoming more of a standard for online transactions from what I was reading. There is a lot of great aspects of anonymity in the internet but when it comes to the transactions that involve money and potentially large amounts of it, you want to know who is who.
As far as the KYC being required for the TestNet though, I can disagree with that necessity. When this project gets off the ground and is rolled out and usable by large companies then yes I certainly think that the KYC form would be quite important; we want to ensure that the people who are signing up to be a node are legitimate. It also helps to fend off people who want to infect the network; they would be able to trace back the infection, in theory at least, to the node and have the persons information that is attached to that node to isolate them and take appropriate action.
