Generally speaking, these integrations are tending toward technocratic totalitarianism one small step at a time.<p>We are ever approaching a reality where a singular device is needed to interact with society in so that you will be logged at every intersection and every acceleration, deceleration and beep of the horn correlated to a psychological profile that is correlated with your health data which adjusts your insurance premiums.<p>And for what? Because we are too fucking lazy to have a small plastic drivers license in our wallets.<p>Or maybe I&#x27;m just cynical with how things are progressing in countries like Australia.

My standard for my phone is that I don&#x27;t store anything on it that I wouldn&#x27;t mind seeing on page 2 of the New York Times.<p>Since my drivers license contains quite some PII, I think I&#x27;d rather not have it on my phone ;-) .

Do you need to unlock &amp; handover the phone for verification though?
