I suggest to take this discussion to BitPay -- KYC is here!.

This isn't new i'm afraid, they've been doing this for a long time... IIRC, they used to have a cutoff amount, smaller amounts wouldn't trigger their KYC procedure... It seems that cutoff amount was now removed, but that's about it (i haven't used any shop that used bitpay for a long, long time, so i'm not really up to date with the crap they've been doing lately)

Here's some more info: https://debitpay.directory/anti-bitcoin/ (not my site, but i use it as a go-to reference when people talk about bitpay)

I have a dedicated server. I have been paying for it for many years with bitcoin via Bitpay without a hitch.
The last payment in December was successful as well.
Yesterday they asked me for registration and then asked to pass KYC! Cryptocurrency billing that lets me pay with bitcoin asked for identification: document, selfie.
Are they completely crazy? Huh  We need a billing that does not hurt our privacy I say.
