> My NFC chip data — the digital info stored on the chip inside my passport

Do we know how they get that? Because my fingerprints are also in there, so...

Yeah was thinking the same thing. I wonder if the author didnt known that passpory chip == fingerprint.

And FP is a much worse modality to have registered because, as opposed to Face image, fingerprint is not affected by age. So that will match you 99.999999% for ever. Faces change.

I naievely assumed fingerprints were trivial to change but on further reading they are a remarkable biomarker

They will have an app that asks to scan you passport with your phone's NFC reader. It's pretty common for Identity Verification.

Wow, that's even worse than I imagined and I was already imagining bad things
