Yup, and this is exactly why I plan to use a VPN once my state starts enforcing this law. There's no way I'm going to show ID to any website unless they absolutely need it. There are very few websites where that's necessary, so I'll just use a VPN to a neighboring state (or even to Canada) instead of complying with that nonsense.
I already have to worry about identity theft, I don't want to make that even easier...
i've been toying with the idea of hosting deep web porn front ends. Not sure how legal it would be. But morally, you'd be on pretty good grounds.
I mean what 13 year old is using tor browser lmao.
I don't think there's any website where it is necessary, excluding ones that adhere to unjustified laws.
I've had to submit it for remote work authorization, travel on a cruise line (not required, but strongly recommended), and to prove my identify for a web host when their automated check failed (that was the fastest way). So yeah, pretty rare, but still a thing.
I had to post a pic of it to a dispo's website in DC to buy legal weed there.
