In the US, As long as "other Government ID" is not an actual Government ID. Scanning/photocopying is a violation of Title 18, US Code Part I, Chapter 33, Section 701. While there evidently are exceptions for government agencies performing official business, Facebook is not a government agency.
- ChoHag 10y agoIs it a crime to require that a person commits a crime before being admitted into a private club?

- tgb 10y agoThe problem with a layman like myself trying to read the law is this kind of thing "except as authorized under regulations made pursuant to law" [1]. What does that mean? It makes the law entirely unreadable. Does this actually prohibit me from making a scan of my passport as a backup while travelling? Presumably not, given that doing so is actually the official suggestion of the state department [2]. So how the hell do I know if something is illegal or not?
