Asking for recommendations in how you might be getting around ID verification on websites and online marketplaces?

I want to be able to use my local online marketplace, but I keep getting asked to provide ID verification or my ads for second hand items dont recieve as many views as a result?

Edit: when referring to online marketplaces I was referring to second hand marketplaces like Carrot, Kijiji, Craigslist, Facebook.

    It still didn’t come to me but I won’t use any feature or service locked behind a face scan or government issued ID document being provided, unless it’s a bank I use or my country’s government website.

    Or I will provide a fake ID if I can make it work, but generally speaking I’d rather just not use that feature or service.

    If this is what the internet is coming to, I want no part of it.

      it’s already a reality in the uk and soon the entire global north – you wont be able to use a phone or computer wo it.
