It seems like it is something ridiculously easy to fool. I know you all love fancy tech, but there are and will be amazingly low-tech ways to defeat these systems.
Also, with a large enough population, you'll also have to deal with doppelgangers (e.g. https://twinstrangers.net/ https://twinstrangers.net/). Probably too many false positives to be very helpful, unless you're willing to spend a lot of money sorting through them.
