There you go. So many people will give a fingerprint or photo ID to get what they want. Not worth it.
wow who would have guessed?
So glad these age verification laws are keeping people safe
😱
… and this is discord. Now imagine how “safe” the data is on any random service
Having seen the internal workings of a few of these random services, not very safe at all.
It’s not just shoddy work, or a lax security policy. There is real money to be made by being unethical, and there is nothing to stop many website owners from just selling the data. It’s not like there are consequences to selling it.
I have a feeling this happens a lot
Unethical actions and profits tend to go hand in hand. Have been for centuries already.
Just think about the economics of kidnapping people in Africa and exporting them to slave camps across the ocean instead of paying white employees to do the work. How about using violence, exploitation and systemic injustice to acquire very cheap spices in Asia and transport them to Europe, and sell them for huge profits.
Who would have thought that such a thing could happen? Apart from anyone knowing enough about computers, I mean?
Insert surprised Pikachu
Already?
Yeah that didnt even take two months. In any reasonable world this would cause the whole world to immediately shut down any and all ID verfication systems like this.
