It's about covering their arse before reopening Fable 5
They don't care if anyone is using a fake ID, they care that they can send the hot potato back to the American government. That gives them a legitimate "not my fault if people can make fake ids. In fact it's your fault"

This help page has been there for a long time. Long before Fable was announced.
Their ID process isn’t new.
They might use it in the future to gate access to Fable if they can conclude that it’s sufficient to comply with the regulation, but the fact that they had this process in place already and they’re not using it for the Fable situation suggests there’s more to it.
Ha that's a good point I didn't realise the process was pre-dating the whole fable 5 story
Persona isn’t just an id upload. It’s also face scan by video.
So a fake ID but using your face?
How would they know? Does the US government expose their database to private businesses? I always wondered how these things work.
I normally run away from these ID checks. It’s just a matter of time until lone of these databases with everyone passports and videos get hacked. And vibe coding only makes it more likely.
I don’t care how good Claude is, it’s not good enough for that kind of risk.
Surprised there isn't a "Fake Face" market like a mannequin face delivered to your door.

The latest ones make you smile, shut eyes / wink, look up, down, etc. plus for Apple they use the lidar and the IR camera for heat.
Not everyone has a device that can use lidar to map the face so it can’t be a requirement.
Kids have been defeating these smile and close your eyes things using photo mode in video games to control a character to perform the actions.
