The long awaited NSW VaxPass finally became available on Friday, but one key flaw has been highlighted by a digital security expert.

, which streamlined the existing check in system with the user’s vaccination status, has attracted criticism over a seemingly obvious flaw.

Without the inclusion of photo ID, unvaccinated members of the public could easily use someone else’s phone, or even someone else’s login details, to gain access to a venue.“Unlike the NSW driver’s licence which has your picture on it, you can take your friend’s phone and show their QR code,” chief digital privacy officer at Trustrgrid, David Palmer said.

Mr Palmer said without photo identification being built into VaxPasses, businesses employees would need to request that each person present additional documents before entering a venue.

Well I wasn't planning on enforcing it anyway.

I would say the key flaw, for both ServiceNSW & MyGov, is accessibility

Any intelligent human being would walk out the door when asked for a Vax Passport

Victoristan… Donkey Dans socialist shyte hole. 🤦‍♂️

Lol you can just press back on the app itself and check if the digital licence has been added to the phone and see the photo there

The ServiceNSW app doesn't even work in it's current state Trying to get the useless devs to add more features will only break the app further. Trash the entire thing & start again

Israel Singapore failed with 2 jabs! Started so called 3rd and 4th booster jabs. Africa is doing better by taking artemisinin. India and Japan started Ivermectin! Who is collecting money from the vax ? Vax is positive related with infection! Time to have alternate treatments

This will be another round of madness business owners have to deal with. Do they really have the time or effort to police each and every customer at the entry of the premises?

Anti-Govt app tracking person: I'm not using some govt app so they can track my every move! RBT traffic stop Police Officer asking Anti-Govt app tracking person for licence: Sure officer, here's my govt issued digital licence on my smart phone w/ inbuild GPS chip.

Took a 'digital security expert' to highlight that ? 🤔 Ok bro
