"hacked", such a shame what happened in the background; it was a teenager who saw some url like "view_my_id_documents?id=1234" and just incremented the number, and could download the documents of other people (did on dozens of millions).

That seems separate from any electronic id. Government already has records on your passport, biometrics or drivers license.
