I see more and more apps and services requiring a selfie to proceed.

What are our privacy minded people doing when they want to use a service but not provide the selfie?

Unless it is something absolutely necessary like a bank app or something which I haven’t run into requirements for then I’d stay away from those types of apps and services.

Like if it is social media then I can live without it. Discord had those leaks from verification so even more reason to just stay away if frivolous apps or services like that ask for it.
