The data gets sold in blocks usually. Could be for identity theft, or SIM swap attacks or any number of things. A lot of things online want an ID scan now, so this is a huge benefit to scammers.
I still have to see the online service or site asking for my ID. Maybe because I’m mostly off of the bullshit-net for the most part. But the moment any service I use asks for ID, it’s getting cancelled and blocked in my house at the network level. I’m expecting my digital life to be dramatically downsized moving forward.
Car rentals, well, not many options there when traveling, since I absolutely refuse to use ride-share apps like Uber and such.
