Legit but accusations? Isn’t it in contrast? Not to invalidate those instances but Stake and other reputable gambling sites won’t still be in such position if things are really problematic.But I respect those who prefers platforms which does not require KYC; we have different tolerance with site rules in the first place and of course it won’t be suggested to players who are up against mentioned procedure.

However, I had a question, if you take all the millions of gambling players around the world and ask them what percentage would prefer to play anonymously and not go through all these humiliating KYC procedures, but, of course, if the players were sure, that there will be no obstacles from the casino side when withdrawing the money won. I think that 90% of players would prefer to play without KYC. By the way, this is a big problem for the entire gambling industry - the problem of casinos imposing KYC on consumers - players. It is clear that these are legal requirements. But this requirement limits the rights of consumers and after some time, subject to the free development of society, should be abolished.
This requirement also violates the human right to privacy, which is guaranteed by the fundamental documents of human rights.
That's what I think.

It is, as you said, humiliating.

There are some reasons why KYC would be justified, even though in most cases it vulnerates the human right to privacy, it's true. For example, it is good to verify that no children have access to gambling (is is now being discussed in my country whether it would be advisable KYC to see porn, with a strong interest followed mainly by the feminists). But not for money laundering, because under suspicion of being guilty, the police can find a criminal without having to impose mandatory identification to every citizen.

I still think that there must be a way to probe online that you are an adult without giving away all your personal data. Maybe the blockchain could hold this info cyphered, so anyone could sign a message for example to prove that he is 18+.
