Customers would, according to the proposed rules, have to present a government ID, a physical address, a full legal name, and an existing phone number.

For a country that doesn't like/want to provide government IDs at no cost, the US sure does like to require them.

Also, gotta have a phone (number) to get a phone. Nice closed-loop system you're proposing there.

No it's definite the US, which was the inspiration for the nazi party's policies.
