Wammate said: The requirements of the billing providers seem to include a Passport or Driving Licence verification - is that correct ?
The actual requirement is "Government issued ID", which for the majority of people in most Western countries will be a passport or driving license. MM stores them securely, encrypted, and off-line, so no risk of anyone "hacking" them.
If you read the FAQ I linked to it explains the reasons for this, trust me we hate it as much as you do - blame the dickheads who thought endlessly and anonymously uploading rape videos of teenagers to certain large Tube sites was a good idea, and said sites for not doing anything serious to put an end to it.
Wammate said: Sorry, but that's not going to happen by me to any Site on the Internet unless it is a legal requirement.
Fair enough, but in that case, keep all uploaded images to PG clothed WAM, and all will be well. TBH I suspect certain forces would like it to become a legal requirement, but that hasn't happened yet.
