In a departure from my typical peer-to-peer ways I stacked some sats through River for the first time in a while. As i attempted to withdraw I had to scan my face and my ID and then was told "Your ID verification has been submitted successfully and is being reviewed. You will be notified by email soon."
I consider River to be one of the "good guys" as they've been good actors, have provided good education, added lightning support, and haven't delved into shitcoinery. However I don't remember the withdrawal process being so invasive in the past. I feel ill. Is that how it is for withdrawls across the KYC landscape now? I mean having to pledge my first born to withdral some corn was "BlockFi esque" in my opinion. Need to go stack som sats via Bisq to cleanse myself....
