I'm suspicious that they want to introduce the requirement of real ids to make accounts online.

[โ€“] Que@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I hadn't used FB for quite some time, when I finally tried to log in again, they wanted me to confirm who I was first with real ID.

Not to make a new account, just to access my existing account, of which I know the password, security answers, and could confirm ownership via my registered email account.

And that was the final nail in the coffin.

Fuck. No.
