Honestly, it’s better than “take a photo of your passport and upload it to our unsecured S3 bucket.”


Or id.me, as used by the IRS. "Scan your license, front and back"...

Front, 200dpi, "Unable to find a face in the image". 300dpi, "Unable to find a face in the image". Let's try lower, 72dpi, "Thank you".

Back, let's start at 72dpi, since that worked for the front. "Unable to read a barcode in the image". Higher, 200dpi, "Unable to read a barcode in the image". 300dpi? "Thank you".
