I don't have government paranoia (yet) but have been a proud victim of both the Target and Anthem Blue Cross hacks. No more thank you. Also, just say no to personalized advertising. Sheesh!
I suspect you and I are eyeballing at least one of the same groups for participation and it's true, that without a Facebook presence on some level you/we are simply excluded.
I did a little poking around and found some information about how sometimes they do ask for
specific ID and if it isn't produced, you get shut down. There was a dust up last fall
involving drag queens and other performers which resulted in
some turnaround, at least temporarily.
I won't upload any official ID to any source until protocols improve significantly (read:not in my lifetime), but may consider seeing what happens if I just wing it with an alias.
