It’s possible to generate realistic looking IDs. It’s not that hard, any person reading this comment can do it.
Get a face from a thispersondoesnotexist.com like generator. Get the format of the ID in a template, fill in random but realistic data. Like for example, 1000 names for each race-gender combo. Realistic zip codes and addresses from another source.
It’s about a weeks work to get it working to production quality, but it can be easily done.
For bonus credit, see if you can generate an image of the same person holding up this ID. Harder, but not impossible.
What’s frustrating is, those of us who work or have worked in Integrity have already discussed all of this for years. We know the easy solutions, the low hanging fruit. It’s not that helpful when a bunch of people say “why don’t you just charge $2 a month”
