Re:I Verified My LinkedIn Identity. Here's What I Handed Over

I suddenly had my account locked down unless I provide my government ID, just like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44435997.
Never did LinkedIn state it was Persona carrying out the validation, and in the email they stated the data would be promptly deleted. I'm now learning this is not true; companies removed from LinkedIn store my data for however long they want.
I feel this is solid grounds for a lawsuit, particularly in states such as California.

QWEN models are quite nice for local use. Gemini 3 Pro is much better than Codex IMO.

Except it wasn't and still isn't secure enough.
