In Europe there is an alternative that verifies your ID better *and* is data minimizing.
Most European ID-Cards have a cryptographic chip that enables verification of identity via a NFC-coupled Smartphone-App.
What is special: You can select in the App which info to give away. Only age, only lastname, only address, etc.
Identity provider is the state and in Germany the App is open source, called #AusweisApp.
