I lost access to my LinkedIn account when they recently asked for my gov't ID. They have my real name, work experience, work email, even my credit card, etc. They still demanded my gov't ID for "community safety." Facebook pulled the same crap and that was the last time I used FB. Twitter did the same and I made a new acct. Meanwhile, jackasses on MIGA.lose and Reddit both tell me that it doesn't happen, "but even if it does happen, so what?" I'm not giving my ID to any damn website!

This hasn’t happened to me. Are you outside the US?
