>Why can't you just allow accepting verification documentation like FB and Blizzard does. How do you expect them to verify that documentation without having it

  That's exactly the problem. They're not willing to take information except what they prescribe. They didn't require much much in the first place. You can't be Yahoo, turn around after you require too little verifying information in the beginning, then place tens of thousands of accounts in stasis, when people are piling up willing to move mountains to show that it's really them. After they've been hacked, how can I be sure that my info wasn't changed? What about with flickr had transitions, was any identifying on the accounts lost? The photos I have can be matched to other public information I have on the net. I've provided those details already. My name is on the account. I was a flickr pro customer. I could give them my billing info of CC's I had around the time. Blizzard doesn't keep driver's licenses on file before hand, but they use it to prove identity.
