Can you please send a picture of your ID to lemmy.world admins so that we can make sure you are not a 15 years old australian kid?
So no, ain’t gonna happen.
Can you please make a government internet ID, and connect that to your social media instead?
That way social media companies will know who you really are, and the govt will be able to know what social media accounts are yours. It’s even better that way.
Wouldn’t this:
Prevent that from being possible? I realize you’re sarcastically describing a dystopian solution but the law seems to be pretty clear in terms of how government ID can’t be used.
