Even if they did, would you trust it?

  Yeah actually - if you know anything about how passports work, you can't actually do anything when interacting with the passport besides confirm its validity.

    This is dangerously incorrect. Based on the level of authentication the reader is able to establish (this is likely only basic authentication), you can read the person's photo and other PII, and at higher authentication levels you can read out their biometrics. Good luck rotating your fingerprints.

      Oh shit I looked up the e-Passport specification and you're totally right. Well, at least I have my imaginary internet points :/
