>The right way to solve this would be to have an indentity provider that has a short 10 second video of myself on file. Then, when I want to sign up for a credit card or bank account, I take a 10 second video of myself using my cell phone, granting approval to open the account

What should those of us without smartphones do? Not to mention that this seems trivial, if not easier to break. I can find the target on Facebook and use a faceswap program to generate a video that looks good enough so that the $9.50/hr worker spending all day comparing faces, who doesn't quite care enough, accepts the video.
