My gf had to submit pictures of her ID like 4 times with all her personal information to be able to post . And I had to go through the same process to be able to be included in the videos . So I don't really understand how moniors can post in there .

The article explains it in one case, an adult woman verified the account and then they posted a minor's videos on it instead.

But the article also said that they only know about 30 cases in 5 years in the US. Which doesn't sound like a huge amount to me personally (still too many obviously)

Yeah it doesn't seem that widespread to me for the amount of people in there . It's probably impossible to get it to 0 . There is always going to be people putting Alot of work to get around it .

Fake IDs, fake foreign IDs, mismatched IDs?

I would love to know how you would decide if the scan or copy of my ID, with picture, I send you by mail, or upload with a web form as a jpeg, is real or a fake.
