@noiob it seems with NFC passports, they generally take a few precautions to make sure information can't easily be taken or modified (ie; Canadian passport NFC tags only carry the same information as one of the pages has, which is basic identification information + the photo, and US passports have NFC reader proof casing) but that's really odd to hear!
@Ramona ugh, my passport has NFC, but I'm sure it's 100% secure lol
