    All this could be avoided by making submit photo id to login into a account.

        By photo ID, I don’t mean just any photo, I mean “photo id” cryptographically signed by the state, certificates checked, database pinged, identity validated, the whole enchilada

          That would have the same effect as just taking the site offline…

          No one is giving a random site their photo ID.

            You’d be surprised, many humans have simply no backbone, common sense nor self respect so I think they very probably would still, in large numbers. Proof is facebook and palantir.
