A group expressed concerns about users' privacy with the inclusion of a selfie verification in the SIM registration process.

The registration requirements under the SIM registration Law and its implementing rules and regulations is clear. And it does not include selfie verification. The abrupt inclusion of this intrusive requirement violates the privacy of the registrant and it led to the glitches that subscribers experienced, he said.

The IRR also enjoins telcos to"include processes to verify the submitted information and data, subject to the applicable provisions of the Data Privacy Act, its IRR, and other relevant issuances of the National Privacy Commission." Globe specifically said they had to take down their site to add the selfie requirement as required by the government, according to a report by Rappler.

When you suddenly order telcos to suddenly add requirement in the registration process a day before the implementation, it's like shooting yourself in the foot, he added.
