Reddit has begun rolling out mandatory age verification for any NSFW content, as well as for some social media functions, if the AI determines you might be under a certain age.

Another good day to be on Lemmy... until the surveillance capitalist tech overlords lobby enough to get their great firewall of the West, anyway.

LinkedIn (Microsoft) has also been slowly introducing identity verification, and they're also using Persona.

Persona has also been used for several years now by American companies hiring EU citizens, to verify their job history and background.

I'm betting that Persona "forgetting" your information is bullshit, and whenever you use them they add more of your info to your profile. They'd have your job history, your LinkedIn activity, your Reddit activity etc.
