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

They 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.

They 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.

Yeah, surely assuming how some random HN user browses the internet never been wrong.

Haven't they reported "anonymous" users before to the police?

I 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?

Can you source this? Seems believable but I haven’t heard it before.

Why would they need to do ID checks then?
