I don't think privacy is the main problem they solve, but the user's need to skip the tedious signups all the time.

So the only potential benefit of Persona is the privacy, and if a user doesn't care about that then it's just another account you have to worry about (i.e. the very problem it tries to solve). As it stands, Persona's problem is that it just reinvents the wheel with slightly different spokes when people already have wheels that they consider good enough.
