Or, you know, it's may be by design? There are n number of countries where you'll be deported immediately if you don't have the right documents, precisely to discourage the kind of challenges you mentioned. The only difference between those countries and the EU is that they actually enforce their laws almost immediately while the EU (and to an extent, the US) don't. A fixed address is practically required in any part of the world to avail of government services, insurance, healthcare and banks, from Mozambique to Monaco.
- the-dude 5y agoAFAIK, the US does not have a mandatory ID requirement ( nor does the UK ).
- Zenst 5y agoBirth certificates are kinda in the realms of manfatory and be it directly or indirectly (classed as child abuse in the case of the USA) illegal not to register a birth in many countries. In the UK you have the 1953 Births and Deaths Registration Act requires a birth to be registered within 42 days of a child being born. Also nice example that Google spat out here in the respect of the UK and trying to opt out not registering a birth: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/jun/23/man-refused-to-register-sons-birth-high-court https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/jun/23/man-refused-... So given that, I'd say birth certificates have in many ways and thru various avenues of law in one country or another, kinda become mandatory years ago.
- nicbou 5y agoPeople have a fixed address but can't register it. This is especially common with the sort of accommodation people get when they move to Germany. It also affects Germans, but to a lesser extent since they register at their parents' house.
