1) venue is in meatspace, 2) age can be eyeballed, 3) they don't routinely hoard data, 4) they don't routinely leak hoarded data, 5) they aren't monopoly with billions of users routinely extorted for PII, 6) they don't routinely leak all that hoarded data, 7) they don't have bots, 8) they aren't connected to PRISM for routine surveillance, 9) they don't routinely leak all the hoarded data, 10) they don't sell hoarded data on black market, 11) they don't sell hoarded data to thousands of business partners, 12) they don't have thousands business partners that routinely hoard, leak and resell data

- GoblinSlayer 2mo agoThey are possible, not necessary.
- inigyou 2mo ago> They are possible, not nevessary. The question was why they are necessary.
- GoblinSlayer 2mo agoThe question was why they exist.
- inigyou 2mo agoAllow me to quote the question in question: > So why are ID checks necessary Why are you gaslighting HN?
