Persona do not seem to be competent guardians of such a trove of private information.

You can follow the discussions between that blogger and the CEO btw - https://x.com/rickcsong/status/2025038040599810385

    Persona was not hacked. No database was breached.  Frontend code source maps were leaked, 
    which means unminified variable names were exposed revealing all the names of our features. 
    These names are already publicly listed in @Persona_IDV's help center and API documentation.

as much as I like the design and the post, that website causes a massive memory leak in Firefox for Mac

  • "reveals", not "causes". The memory leak, if it truly exists, was already present. It's not a website's fault for triggering it.
