If someone wanted to be a martyr and just uploaded all their personal documents so they could be accessed by everyone, I wonder if an interesting court case might follow.

I could imagine it ending with a court ruling that people are responsible to protect their own personal documents which... yeah, that would muddy the waters in a world where every website expects to see your ID.

The verification apps are starting to require live video selfies to verify that the person doing the verifying is the same face as the person on the scanned ID credential.
