    Why SHOULD you decline to have a photo taken to compare to your ID with your photo on it? This article doesn’t say that, but that’s what the headline reads.

    This is not “it’s already bad, might as well go full stupid” so much as “did you know bread has dirt in it? you should avoid it.” - people who don’t wash their hands after they shit.

    By all means decline the picture, but most people have way, WAY bigger security and privacy problems than having a live picture taken when they fly once a year.

        Is it a problem though? Or just questionable security hygiene? That’s the issue I take with the article: the headline says “BIG PROBLEM” but then doesn’t deliver any supporting evidence.
