- lostlogin 1y agoI’ve been trying to think of other expensive things you can do anonymously. Busses aren’t cheap, but have a driver. You can ride a plane (national only) here in NZ with no ID check. There is a name on the ticket, but no one checks it matches the passenger. Plenty of staff and other passengers around too.

I hypothesize that at least one of these is true: No one has exploited this yet (it only takes one incident). It is checked, you just don't know about it. Facial ID is pretty rad now.
