You are naive if you think they can’t infer almost everything about median user already.

- duskdozer 21d agoWhy would they need to do ID checks then?
- azan_ 21d agoLiability
- embedding-shape 21d agoThey certainly can't infer my full name and address from what I've used Claude for in the past, but if I'm forced to hand over my ID and I do, then they would.
- password54321 21d agoHaven't they reported "anonymous" users before to the police?
- fn-mote 21d agoCan you source this? Seems believable but I haven’t heard it before.
- embedding-shape 21d agoI don't know, how is that relevant to them asking for IDs now and also still not yet knowing my full name and/or address?
- cobolcomesback 21d agoThey infer your full name and address from the trackers baked into your OS, browser, phone, and every website you visit. They already have this. They’ve had it for years. They don’t need your ID for it.
- embedding-shape 21d agoYeah, surely assuming how some random HN user browses the internet never been wrong.
- pocksuppet 20d agoThe trackers have this if you upload your ID to some websites.
