Back in tha day, the photocopy of your driver's licence thing was pretty common and nobody complained. Am speaking of the dial-up 300 baud days of BBS's, and besides age verification it helped give a warm fuzzy to the sysops who were increasingly concerned about legal issues until the internet rendered all that irrelevant. What we did was simply redact the Social Insecurity Number and Licence Number from the copy and sent the rest. Being a foolish idealist (and who better than an idealist to lead crusades?) i think that all this should not be necessary (or any law for that matter) because people know what is wrong and should simply not do it. Speaking of which, Shmeng is (as of today) blocked by my company's firewall because it is in the category 'sex' according to them...
