May be a stupid question, but it occurred to me that when renewing official IDs, fingerprints are registered, and of course, there's a clean shot of your face. Kinda makes me uncomfortable, since fascism seems to be on the rise pretty much everywhere. How do you guys deal with this? Necessary evil?
