As a green card user, I’ll now have to have a clipper card that is tagged to my ID. BART (read any “official” agency that asks) can know when and where I go, anytime it wants to check. With the green card, all that’s known is that whoever bought it showed that they were a certain age. I can even sell my spare green card to a friend who forgot to buy one. (It’s happened.) But I’m showing my age: basic privacy is so last century.
