    The techies implementing it probably knew this, but hoped that people would just quietly do it and not blast the news all over the internet. Nope!

    I guess soon there will be only the more intrusive/trackable options like credit card or bank details.

        I think that credit cards are unambiguously tied to you, whereas a photo could be a bunch of people. I appreciate that having someone take a photo of you before you go to a porn site isn’t exactly anyone’s idea of a utopia.
