It's worth noting that there's a form of gambling that's exactly the same as sports betting that has been legal for much longer, the financial markets.

There are IDs in Australia which can be verified this way. There are also more than enough accepted IDs that can not, rendering such verification mechanisms rather pointless. On another note, it's important to keep in mind that this is

Because they usually don't, and they certainly don't in Australia where it's essentially impossible. The government run IDMatch DVS can verify that the biographic information is correct, but can not verify the authenticity

That depends on the actual implementation of the checking. For example despite passports having chips, essentially no passport control is going to deny you entry if your genuine passport has a broken chip. So currently at least, a good forg
