alt Hacker NewsThat's antithetical to the goal of a secure ID. It has to be really impossible to get stolen, or as difficult as a physical card. If the ID is just a password, you can tell other people your password, and it can be stolen, and it can be cloned. Germany is a strict liability country, and you will be fined or imprisoned for anything that is done with your identity card that was cloned because your PC was infected by malware if you don't report it stolen.

And as we know it is impossible to give someone your physical card.

You can give your physical cards to other people or give them access to your computers, too.

I don't see an issue with this.
