They actually set this up pretty far in advance though. For instance, I’m from Texas, where any IDs issued since October 2016 are complaint. It’s impossible for me to have a current ID that’s non-compliant.
So from my perspective there won’t really have been any changes since 2001 in my flying experience.
I worry about this: https://www.dhs.gov/real-id but from the website, it seems that many states id/driver licenses are “REAL ID compliant” and you only need it if you fly domestically or wanting to access “certain federal facilities”.
I actually live in the US and am considering a burner for when I travel.
I have a question for you, do you actually need REAL ID to travel domestically?
Soon, you’ll need it to fly domestically.

Starting May 7, yes you’ll need a REAL or Passport to board US domestic flights.
Afaik, your state Id or driver license is your legal identification. And states honor the IDs of other states.
I refused to use id.me to get unemployment insurance because I don’t want a private 3rd party having that info plus a face scan.
