I have recently seen where bounty hunters were asked to present identifying documents.  Am really against kyc because one of the reasons I joined crypto was the anonymity which it provides. But sadly that's gently creeping away.

Now this KYC has come into airdrops. Imagine am to submit my ID to some I don't know which planet he or she or they are from for some pennies worth tokens. 

It's terrible and this is a bad precedence these people are setting.

If as a community we do not say no to this,  then it would become the norm.

For ICO regulations, good job Teams. But for airdrop hunters, its not the best thing to filter out the legitimacy of using one account per person in the crypto space. Well, not a big requirement for airdrop to require KYC.
