does anybody know if it is legal for companies like Facebook, Godaddy, Twiterr, etc.to ask a client for a Photo ID to unlock an account?

Yes. It's legal for them to ask their clients for a photo ID to unlock an account, as this ensures the real identity of the account holder and thwart fake accounts.

Yes its Perfectly Legal thats how they Verify if Someone is the Real Person or a Fake Account there is no way to Tell Accurately unless they see a Photo ID

Technically they have absolutely no right to any of a persons personal information which includes but does not end at their real name, address, birth date, and a photo. While they don't technically have a legal right to it so far nothing has been made illegal about them asking for or even requiring such things and the reasons for that are:

Identification

It's used for basic identification as well as government and law enforcement investigations, advertisers use it, and sometimes personal information and browsing history is sold to advertisers. Get a lot of popups relevant to sites you've visited or things you've searched for? That's why. It's tracking for advertising which is done on the internet automatically (cookies, simple programs called robots and trackers, click bots (that are EVERYWHERE on Facebook).

If you want the world to know and have access to it, submit and share and post it online.

Your privacy settings on facebook don't mean anything. How do you think Zuckerburg became a billionaire from a FREE website?

Pay-per-clicks, click bots, advertisements, and sales is how. I don't know if he did sell any personal information, if he did it will probably never be known so lets not falsely accuse but the fact is that anyone that's on facebook is under risk of a year-round open season hunting license and that license is at these places:

https://www.google.com/

https://www.facebook.com/

https://www.yahoo.com/

https://www.msn.com/

https://www.duckduckgo.com/

https://www.dogpile.com/

There are billions of ^those^. Search engines. I think my point has been made.

Click one of those randomly and search your name. You might be surprised or even shocked at what the internet finds. Anyone that does it finds the same thing you do.

of course it's legal - they are trying to prevent people from creating fake accounts because of spammers, trolls, kids lying about their age, and people from other countries being able to affect things like elections... fake accounts are not good for social media, so you will just have to get used to it and adapt, and stop breaking the rules by creating more than one account. yes, those are the rules you agreed to when you signed up, you just didnt actually read them. if you dont like rules, you arent going to like the internet very much

yes it is legal

why would you think there is a law about something like this?

Of course, the company can request proof including legal documentation that you are who you say you are...
