So Duo (the multifactor authentication service that #infosec loves) has integrated with Persona (the privacy destroying, Peter Thiel backed, AI-linked, facial scanning and mapping "identity verification" software)

You know the recent Discord snafu that received such massive pushback and caused so many people to leave Discord that they've dropped their identity verification?

Yeah, that Persona.

Duo integrates it into Duo Premier, Duo Advantage, and even Duo Essentials...

...which means many working class folks will have no option but to be enrolled into and use Persona...

...or be fired.

@tinker I'm guessing bitching to my Cisco rep won't get me far either...

@Crookie - Actually. It will.

You push back against your rep, and they log it and report it in their meetings.

One of the major jobs of a customer service and sales rep is to document and report on current client trends and perceptions.

Push back. And continue to push back. Make it their problem so they pass the problem on.

They change their product and offerings all the time to get more money from clients. If clients are pushing back, threatening not to spend more money, they will alter their actions to get more money.

The bottom line is the bottom line for a reason.
