California car dealerships are sometimes visited by the DMV inspector, an actual officer of some kind technically.

If they find any driver license photo copies, even turned over inside an unlocked desk drawer, the fine to a dealership is $10k per occurrence.

Is it weird that internet companies do not have this kind of oversight?

Car dealership associations have pretty impressive lobbying capabilities. In many (most?) states you must buy a new vehicle from a dealer - it's against the law to buy direct from the manufacturer.
