not at all, way way earlier. I always find it weird how countries that don't have them associate them to something authoritative. It's just a card to ID yourself when dealing with government services (or buying alcohol or entering bars or whatever)
I don't even know how it could be used for anything bad to be honest
I'm Portuguese and I've carried my ID card every day for my entire life, it's just a card in my wallet. Never gave it a second thought.
