I assume there is resistance against it because it wasn't mandatory to have one before (in my country carrying an ID became mandatory in 2005 and there was quite some resistance). Furthermore there is some privacy/security risk because these cards seem to have a (RFID/NFC or similar) chip on it.
- pmontra 11y agoMany countries have some sort of photo id's, think of driving licenses. What's odd here is that they have to wear it in plain sight and use it all the time. A company badge is a credential valid only within the company, this is valid across the country for all kind of purposes. I won't feel comfortable using my passport to open doors. It's disproportionate to the importance of the credential. There are years I don't use my passport at all.
