    They can! In fact, in the UK some government services do this already however there’s a couple of drawbacks:

    1. They’d need to use some kind of companion app for each device since the web APIs won’t give them access to this.

    2. For us at least the NFC chip still contains a digital copy of the photo so it’s not really any better since I don’t know what data is going to be sent by the app.
