iOS 13's newly expanded NFC support will be useful for more than just hopping on the subway. Germany is taking advantage of the upcoming software's support for Apple-approved NFC identification documents to let residents scan their ID cards and use them both online and for check-ins at international airports. You'll need to wait for both the release of iOS 13 (likely in September) and the German government's AusweisApp2 to make everything work, but this might just save you the trouble of pulling out your wallet to prove who you are.

Das ist nicht sehr nett.
Du lasst uns klingen, als wären wir Nazis. Wir lieben alle, auch die Juden.
Ich bin hierher gekommen, um Dinge zu besprechen, die wichtig sind, um nicht als Nazis bezeichnet zu werden.
Arschloch!

My mother often told me that during the war, citizens in occupied countries were constantly terrified to hear the words "Ausweis bitte!", not "Papieren bitte!". Hearing those words could mean that you were about to get deported, never to be heard from again.
I agree with you that current generations should not be held responsible for crimes in the distant past.
