> This is a nifty way to lightly verify someone's address! A service could ask for scans of utility bills, or driving licences, but this is a lot simpler. It's also an invalid way to verify where someone lives. It's possible to "verify" any address at which you can have mail sent to your name and receive, for example, a previous address, an office, a co-working space, an abandoned building or vacant apartment, etc. This is why it's such a big deal that Nextdoor makes each user's address public inside their neighborhood group by default — there are trivial ways to get into a neighborhood group.
