Ok, #Vimeo is now become impossible to use... not going to put a selfie or government id out there for the 1 video i have there.
Eugenia LVimeo is asking me for age verification to continue access my own files, even if I had this account since 2007. Even if I was 1 year old when I created that account, I'd still be 20 years old now.
So why the ask? What a useless thing.

Window Maker LiveThere used to be a video demonstration of #wmlive at wmlive.sourceforge.net but no more.
The video hosting company #Vimeo started to impose age verification by acquiring biometric data of a face scan via smartphone camera.
So i decided to terminate relations and had them delete my account.

In the long run, i expect to be fully shut out from all these modern technical facilities turning our shared reality into a high tech prison.
I can't ever consent to such blatant tech vigilance measures.
Olaf ‽Muss ich das jetzt unter #enshittification verbuchen, dass #vimeo eine Altersverification verlangt, damit ich auf meine Videos auf der Plattform zugreifen kann?
Stéphane Audic . For Hire@davidchavalarias N'est-ce pas ironique de publier la vidéo sur #vimeo ?
Tobias Kauschlol #vimeo doesn't let me access the settings page to delete my account before I verify my age? That doesn't sound right? I can't access the films I bought neither. (luckily I downloaded them when they got bought) Shouldn't the age restricted space be only movie watching/browsing?

They are also, if I am not mistaken, the ones that bought #Evernote, so you can imagine what's in store for #Vimeo.

What do they do with all the user data they collect from #evernote #Komoot and #vimeo ?
