We should make a bet how long it will take before the ID databases get leaked.

It would take too long.

Making the bet that is, it would be leaked before you are done setting up the betting system.

Australia requires mobile phone providers to verify IDs before providing cell phone service. As a result, in September 2022, Optus leaked the records of 10 million Australians including passport and drivers license details.

So negative 2 years, 2 months.

But this is just asking for more.
