Not a lot of fraud or identity theft from the waiter taking your card to charge your meal, no.
Probably there are some rogue waiters who try to use a customer’s card to buy personal things for themselves, but I’ve never heard of it happening to anyone I know personally
Yeah, it’s not great if you think about it, but it’s standard. I’m not here to be a prescriptivist; I’m just describing my experience (and it’s a common one in the US of A).

That’s the norm in all of the US
Mental, is there a lot of fraud and identity theft?

I seen Americans discussing paper shredders as standard appliances everyone has because they are afraid of identity theft.
