    Bruh, we have a corporation in charge of verifying your identity for OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT PURPOSES such as unemployment. (ID.me)

    You have to download an app on your phone, then do a face scan, ID scan (front and back), then you might have to do a video call to an employee and have to show the documents to that person again, all that just to get unemployment. (I mean, Devil’s Advocate position would be: There has been a lot of fraud regarding unemployment) But like, okay, why do just build a government-run verification system? Why are they using tax money to pay for a private corporation to di official ID verification?!?

    Things are so crazy lol.
