    Moreover, as one parent interviewed said:

    “Kids don’t know the difference between a genuine website and a website that isn’t genuine. If all websites have facial verifications [sic] and they go on a website that is not genuine, their face and their documents could be used to do illegal stuff.”

    I personally wouldn't limit that to children; adults are pretty easy to fool.

      Do you need to be a genius to figure out that children will just steal their parent's ID?

      Heck, most parents would probably just give their ID to their kid, no questions asked.
      Especially if the kid screams and complains.
