If this statement is not an outright fabrication, it does demonstrate a failure of Musixmatch since they describe Curators as "the most passionate and active community members, hand-selected by the Musixmatch internal team based on the merit of their contributions" (emphasis mine). Creating a safer and fairer environment for Curators is the job of moderation. Government ID is not moderation.
