Violating Terms of Use Isn’t a Crime, EFF Tells Co...
There are a whole lot of facebook accounts that I don't have ID to match.

It violates the Facebook ToS to have an account with a name that doesn't match your ID.

Right, but how could anyone prove that you are the one who created the fake account?

They could look at your phone or computer and see which Facebook account you are logged into. This won't prove you created it but even logging into it is possibly a ToS violation.

Face recognition could also work.
Note that this is rather hypothetical.

I'm not sure how this would work. You mean if Facebook started requiring people to login via webcam/facial recognition?
