    easy to say, but that depends entirely on the government and company doesn’t it?

      Any government already has all of that information, so, no.

      By giving it to a company, you just increase the risks of info leakage.

        I assume OP actually meant the additional info the government can get from where I authenticate with my goverment ID to a company.

        Hypothecial situation: You wanna buy a sex toy.
        If the goverment does store where and what you buy, they could punish you by withholding services.
        And they might not say why and give a bs excuse or send you on a goose hunt to do more paperwork.
        You can suspect that but probably never proof that it was the case.

      As always life is complicated.
      I am talking about my personal situation.

      ^(Do I really need to put a disclaimer to all posts, that mentions all comments are from my own view and might no apply to every situation in every country?)
