Identity verification in its current form(s) is completely outsourced to basically any company that says they are compliant and would do verification.
Forcing young kids and then teenagers to use facial recognition systems as part of everyday life also rubs me the wrong way. Especially when any company in any jurisdiction could be saving them.

At the end of the day they unfortunately did the same thing that upper management will do. Find a technical solution, to an human problem. Not everything needs to be solved with technology.

Discord is the primary platform for right wing terrorism and pedophilia indoctrination
Regularly working with law enforcement usually just means they respond to court orders and basically all companies do that.
Some of the most prolific right wing terrorism groups start and rely on discord because the platform has tools for granular social and group manipulation.
They almost always start in gaming communities too
