There are image processing methods for hashing people's faces. They don't have to store the actual photo to do that.

Models have racial biases, can't support aged faces, or look-alike faces.
You don't have to use ML models for this.
Can you elaborate more? Discord has 656m users. if 10% upload their ID, they'd have 65m ID photos to search through. There are 2 use-cases here:
1/ Safety Bans (lets pretend 0.01% of ID card users have been banned for safety reasons: 650k accounts)
If a user submits their selfie/ID card, Discord needs to compare the new image with one of the 650k banned (but deleted?) images. I can't possible think how a human could remember the 650k photos well enough to declare a match.
Even if such a human existed with this perfect recall, there can't be very many of them on this planet to hire.
2/ Duplicate account bans
If a user registers, how can a support staff search the 65m photos without ML assistance to determine if this is a new user or a fraudster?
