Why would anyone use that shit after this?
They better be NSFW selfies.
Sharpies
This is what Facebook does to verify accounts, they also autoban if you try to register with a temp email
What's to stop uploading a random picture of a person? Or even an AI generated person? I get what they're trying to do, but seems like legislative theater more than anything.
I've once attempted to open a bank account where they wanted video proof, and expected me to say a randomly assigned phrase, to solve the issue you mention.
I didn't do it. Fucking KYC is BS.

What if I just have AI generate a fake selfie with a fake ID? Are they gonna use AI to check it against a database? Well, I actually have my AI write a bunch of malware into the image and now I've hacked into the mainframe and downloaded your entire porn database. Suck on that harddrive
That said, as someone who has posted stuff like that and had it spread without my consent, screw (very much not literally) consuming that shit without taking the same risks as the people sharing what they get off to.
I do think its gross to require it for the other NSFW stuff. Drug forums are very important resources for harm reduction.
