  Any government already has all of that information, so, no.

    I assume OP actually meant the additional info the government can get from where I authenticate with my goverment ID to a company.

    Hypothecial situation: You wanna buy a sex toy.
    If the goverment does store where and what you buy, they could punish you by withholding services.
    And they might not say why and give a bs excuse or send you on a goose hunt to do more paperwork.
    You can suspect that but probably never proof that it was the case.

  As always life is complicated.
  I am talking about my personal situation.

  ^(Do I really need to put a disclaimer to all posts, that mentions all comments are from my own view and might no apply to every situation in every country?)
