This feels strange and biased, and I’m not sure it belongs on HN.
The only context in which DHS claims Real ID is “unreliable” appears to be during mass detentions. That framing reads less like a genuine critique of Real ID and more like a convenient justification: “Sorry, we detained you because you look Mexican. Your Real ID isn’t sufficient.”
The author then shifts blame onto Real ID itself, rather than on DHS agents who are choosing to ignore it.

- FloorEgg 10mo agoI agree with GP here. According to the official HN guidelines this doesn't seem like it belongs on HN.
- tyleo 10mo agoI don't understand your point. My comment about article context is an objective statement that you can verify. I feel like you’re telling me, “the article says A but you should claim it says B, C, and D and we should discuss those instead.”
