I actually think it’s safer since every now and then you need to upload a scan of your ID to a service that you want to use or do an online verification video that gets saved. That information is gonna be out there and it’s probably gonna be unencrypted on a server of a business where a lot of people working there have access to it. So I very much prefer being the one in charge of my e-ID like I am with my physical ID.
