    Couldn’t they just set up a secure government site so only the government has your ID and only the porn site has your token verification? I think some country did that and it works fine without security issues because the government already has that info anyway

      They should do this to replace giving our licence or passport numbers when signing up for things that actually need to verify who we are, like with banks. Would reduce the chance of our data being compromised in a breach.

      It should not however be used for anything like social media or porn sites. Random sites do not need to know who we are.

      Could? Yes, the issue isn’t technical.

      Should we suggest it? No.
