I feel it is too invasive of my privacy.! If it's hacked you're life is completely vulnerable to identity theft with way too much information.

My experience with ID.me has always been a positive experience. Making sure no one can steal my identity is of paramount importance these days because identity theft is on the rise. The few extra steps that one has to take to verify their identity with ID.me is nothing compared to what one could be dealing with after an identity theft crisis.

Security and Access

Extra security measures using live virtual video/camera face recognition and not relying on just a photo for identification makes me feel safe in accessing important personal information via the internet.

Dealing with anything related to the state of NJ is always a nightmare. This, however, was a pleasant surprise. Seems like finally some swamp creature down in Trenton decided to try a legit corporate vendor instead of hooking up their cousin who 'builds great websites'
