LMFAO

Good luck trying to get that to hold in a court of law when the identities of roughly half of America is on the line.

Remember guys, legalize has absolutely no power until a judge decides it does.

That being said, I'm personally not signing up for it.

How much does this matter? If a class action suit is filed, does the potential winnings outweigh any value TrustedID brings?
