> It’s not OK as a hard requirement for anything else such as banking.
What’s the alternative that you think is okay for that then?
Certain businesses have regulatory requirements to know and verify your identity (banking, telco).
A UK poster gave an example of how they need to mail the bank a copy of their passport and other private information.
I’d certainly much prefer simply using a digital login solution as an alternative to that. They can verify I am who I say I am, without needing my passport which I would consider a much bigger privacy invasion to hand out.
