Similarly as someone could slip your shooter a false ID, I took lengths to make sure my duty of care / reasonable doubt has been established.
True, anyone can fake it, going on what my attorney says, and he is considered one of the top attorney in the field, someone other than the performer needs to actually inspect the id's. If you are inspected, at least in court you can try and argue you followed the law and were tricked, alot easier to fake a photo of ID's when checking them over the net than to create a physical fake ID.

And to be 2257 compliant, the 2257 record needs to have these sections filled out (with others) which is not possible if the performer is doing it:
"Date Performer's I.D. was examined:"
"Performer's I.D. was examined by (name):"

thus it's a 2257 violation.

Although you wouldn't be in 2257 violation since you personally aren't in the states or a citizen, anyone using your content to promote your site would be. If you are ok with that, that's cool, you just aren't fully 2257 compliant like most people in this industry is my point.
