Show HN: Open-source user onboarding and KYC flow ...
Many services do some sort of “liveness check” to verify there’s a live human interacting with the webcam for the selfie.

Hm, do they stream user's camera feed to their server? Seems like a questionable practice if the user is not made aware of that.

I've seen cool computer vision demos that run client-side in the browser, so I hope they don't stream the feed. OTOH if they do stream, warning the user would go a long way.
