I'm assuming this is only for blue checks. This is too big of a PITA for ordinary users. They'll just log out and go somewhere else.

Anything you say can and will be used against you.

I assume just for verified users? A good way to weed out bots, and only suckers, grifters and sex workers with no better options are verified anymore anyway. So limited harm.

If this is used for account verification and paid "verification" will be removed, then do not see any issue here.
