As I just pointed out in the IPv6 list there's a huge difference between national ID card and passport. Daniel is right about ID cards, but as far as it concerns German passports the only one potentially in trouble is the NCC who passes those copies on. >>> German law is valid only on German soil. That's quite an oversimplification. If I nicked some sort of business secret from a customer of mine, went to another country and sold it there, then German law *would* apply. It might only be applicable when I return, but that's a different issue. >> that claim in its undercomplex simplicity is simply a false one. > I think for things like copying personal ID documents, it's enough. > But iIf I'm in error, please direct me where I can get correct information. https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/pa_g_1986/BJNR105370986.html > Because, if local laws require hotels to identify every guest, what is > the difference between a photocopy and a copy of every field on a > computer (giving up the signature)? A photocopy provides significantly more information for faking one than just the data. > Or how to make a delegation, even for taking a registered mail? That's actually one of the issues. If a copy of my ID can be used for any sort of legal business, and if I have to hand out copies of my ID to all sorts of people, then this makes various sorts of identity theft rather simple.
