I'd consider it a negative that they trust a shitty webcam / selfie camera to cut the expenses of having an actual office with trained personnel.

Who aren't flawless of course, but selfies have been easily circumvented with photos or video game cameras.

Hell, at one point we had to implement age verification for a Japanese tobacco product website via a 3rd party vendor, I just used the wiki page's picture of a Japanese ID to test it, worked fine.

Yeah, it's ridiculous in an age where you can have backgrounds replaced on the fly in video calls.
