Some of my friends tried this airdrop but it seems suspicious they are not giving airdrop anymore they are just collecting details and this is very alarming what if they steal our account on exchanges they are asking sensitive data and yet they rejected the applications seems like a trap for me. Binance can verify kyc in 24 hours but blockchain process it like 1 month and the result is rejected.

It depends entirely on your part. If that amount fits you, then you can pursue giving your privacy in their reward. But, if you think that this thing is a scam, avoid it. It's not worthy of your time and it's not worthy of your privacy for just 25 usd.

Our personal details should be always kept personal. And by the way, keep in mind nobody will give you somethign as a gift.. if they send you 25$ in tokens.. is because they can profit form your data in a bigger ammount!

I have KYC on blockchain.com and it is very difficult to verify, so I don't think it's really stealing my information. This can make us safer.

Speaking about the ongoing stellar airdrop by blockchain.com which started as a fair one but now requires those interested in the airdrop to pass some KYC procedures, I ask, is it worth it? We complain of Facebook, Google etc of stealing our privacy and possible selling them for profit to other companies and praise blockchain of been decentralized yet we're willing to sell our private details to some centralized organization offering services related to the blockchain technology and we think it's safer? I get it that the bear market has affected numerous newbie that came into the market in 2017 but I ask again is just $25 worth your privacy?

I suspect this moved by them as a deliberate attempt to steal users private details (identify), first they made the airdrop looks so simple and easy thereby deceiving numerous customers into believing they would get free $25 after they have trapped their victim, they then introduce kyc to steal their identity.

I don't think it's worth it. I feel like everyone in the world of crypto money has paid just $ 25 to capture their identity data. I think if they had something more innocent, they wouldn't give it to so many people.

If depends on your personal financial situation and where you live.

There are places in the world, such as Venezuela, where you can live one motnh with 25 USD.

If you live in a rich country, I doubt you should take kyc

To avoid cheaters come and steal their XLMs.
But, it's always too bad to disclose IDs for such only $25 rewards.
Am yet to understand why blockchain is interested in our identity.

Newbies or seniors, who can well survive through it, will have other great opportunities, so there is no reason to lose IDs and get $25.

Am yet to understand why blockchain is interested in our identity. Bitcoin should be unregulated and owners of wallet should be anonymous. The idea of giving out $25 in exchange for users identity is suspicious. Let's be careful of how we give out our privacy to avoid unwarranted issues in the future.

Nope.
I saw the one for months, but I have never cared to join it.
Losing personal details to surpass KYC and receive $25 in XLM, I won't do this even it can bring $100 or $1000.
It is too risky for all of my account on exchanges.
That site is a big one, reliable, but who knows someday data leaks happen.
There will be nothing happen when attackers are not able to find bugs, but someday, when they found bugs and abuse systems, serious things will occur.
Safest place might be the most risky place, sometimes.
