I installed this last night and was presented with a warning screen saying that I'd have to provide ID, then the following screen basically said "Nah, you're good bro, we don't need your ID".

I'm hoping that was as a result of my Apple ID having been set up many years ago, rather than them having seen my camera roll and concluded that this guy is clearly old as fuck.

Or they have your credit card info?

Well they do, but the actual reason given on the subsequent screen was down to when my Apple ID was set up.

Looks like they do it either way.
