This isn't true, give me a break. They'd have to ask everyone for ID then and that's pointless.
What about people who have been using facebook for years but never uploaded a photo of themselves and only show other family members? A lot of people I know do that - especially older folks. They also use fake last names so people can't search them so what would an ID prove? Does that mean these people have to upload photos of themselves on top of showing ID? That's entirely creepy and suggests an ulterior motive.
Also people who are under age 16 usually don't have IDs so that would mean no teenager under 16 could ever use FB again. That would definitely be a loss in that aspect.
I had several troll accounts on facebook that I would use to harass people I know. They have been taken down and I am unable to reactivate them without ID's for them.
Also people under 16 are supposed to have ID's. Its drivers licenses they don't have. I've had ID since I was 4. They say birth certificates and other government issued identification works as well.
Fucking pissed!!!

This is a new policy and they probably wont ask for ID unless they feel a reason to, but they are enforcing this new rule.

It has been a big deal lately and a lot of people are complaining about it.
