> There's going to be Amazon S3 buckets filled up with Drivers Licenses JPEG's provided by Stripe Identity, in a few months time.

What makes you think these don't already exist? Have you ever needed provide your identity information to use a service online (e.g. a insurance service, bank, alcohol/weed delivery, crypto market, etc.)? Where do you think the identity information you provided is stored?

If you don't use these type of services, then nothing will change--stripe won't magically have all your identity info. If you do use these services maybe they'll partner with Stripe, maybe not. The only outcome I can see from this news is that it's likely there will be fewer AWS buckets with your identity info moving forward, because Stripe can do that for you now.
