wire transfers are the modern day equivalent of sending a person off with a bag of cash
they take god knows how long, a bunch of intermediaries are in the way and charge you a lot of money, you don't know how much exactly the other person will get, you need an obscene amount of detailed instructions, and you don't even know if the right person will get it

re: mentions ukpol (v0180 (EXTN (ST
@5225225 assuming that it's not an edited image or just straight up a fake ID (which would be easy to do given it's a heavily censored and blurry photo), at least )
(ST so the risk of letting a minor through is still there despite requiring me showing some stranger what exactly I look like )))

re: mentions ukpol (v0180 (RESP 20 (ST
@5225225 I guess it's so that, like, someone didn't steal their parents' ID and give it to them? )
(ST which is a real risk, I suppose, idk how you're going to get a picture of an adult holding their ID with some verification text without getting an adult involved )))

@5225225 I mean, yeah, none of them require the whole ID
if they just require the ID then that's silly but it's not a hill I'll die on
if they require a picture of my face, even without the ID, they can go fuck themselves

if there's one good thing about the online safety act it's that maybe this will make discord mods realize that sending a picture of your actual real-life face holding up an ID card to some stranger is a terrible idea

general politics (v0180 (XSTM (ST
I don't get the argument that "but millionaires shouldn't be receiving taxpayer dollars to [receive some government subsidy/subsidized service]!"
like
1. in an ideal world, they would have already paid it back tenfold in taxes
2. means testing makes accessing the service more difficult for everyone and, I assume, isn't cheap for the government
3. they're less likely to think that policy is a waste of money if they get to use it
4. if they're a businessperson they probably already receive tons of government subsidies
