There are some services where it makes sense. E.g., submitting taxes with the government, logging into the banking website. Apart from that kind of service, yes I don't think I would want my identity or age verified on more or less any website.

the catch is that for both cases same backend provider is most likely used. persona for example. and you have no choice who will id your face.

I mean, if you live in a country where the state will delegate ID verification to a creepy company instead of having that as an in house capability you have more pressing structural issues to deal with.

ok, lets do a poll. id like to see who uses what. remember its not only countries its also private businesses like banks or lawyers

and remember its like ratchet. there might be 99% of services that use inhouse face id, and its enough to have only one to leak your data.

Ha! You are concerned about the privacy aspects of IDs but you want me to list what authentication services I use for you? That's too funny to help out with :p

		i ment to list id services that are used by your services not services themselves. My data point is persona.
