Think age and ID verification is limited to social media? Think again. Get ready for new age and identity checks if you use LLMs.

Age and ID verification coming to Claude AI soon. Anthropic’s updated privacy policy (effective July 8, 2026) introduces age and identity verification provisions for Claude Free, Pro, and Max users. The process can involve a government ID and a live selfie, handled through Anthropic’s partner Persona Identities. https://privacy.claude.com/en/articles/10301952-updates-to-our-privacy-policy 🤡

@nixCraft you basicly hand out your ID Data (passport or similar) to an LLM, that has been known to abuse data. Or people can manipulate it to abuse data.
Why don't you just send your passport to Anthropic to sell to the highest bidder?
