Ehrliche Frage, ich muss es wissen.
Dies hat mir so viel Verwirrung veranlasst, das Ding zu lesen … Ich muss jetzt meine neue Eid -Karte einfügen, die sich jetzt umgekehrt und auf den Kopf stellt … und sie machten den Pfeil auch fast unsichtbar …
Soweit ich das beurteilen kann, ist dies gegen alle Standards, der Chip sollte vorne sein, nein?
Ich bin Computeringenieur, ich habe fast eine Stunde gebraucht, um mit einer neuen Version der EID -Software herumzuspielen, und eine weitere Stunde, um herauszufinden, dass ich die Karte auf sehr seltsame Weise einfügen muss …
Meine IT -Unterstützung bei der Arbeit lachte, als ich es ihm sagte, er habe sogar Leute an seinem Schreibtisch auftauchen, um dabei zu helfen …
Was glaubte sie, würde passieren? Wer wird meinen Großeltern dabei helfen?
Belgien Warum?!
Bearbeiten: Es liegt an ICAO -Regulierungaber ich denke immer noch sie Hat es falsch gemacht 🤣
Why is the chip on the new eID cards on the back?

I can think of twoo reasons:
– it’s put on the back so your privacy data isn’t on display when inserting it in more public places
– a design decision made without any developer present in the room and rolled out despite of internal objections of devs
To annoy the fuck out of everybody

It’s Belgium, we always have to do things slightly different than what’s conventional.
Probably some overpaid engineer that came with a very complicated theory that doesn’t make sense on why it should be that way.
> I’m a computer engineer, it took me nearly an hour of messing around with a new version of the eID software, and another hour to figure out I have to insert the card in a very weird way…
mate…
Because it had to be backwards compatible with the previous cards.
I hate to break it to you but for some reason lots of countries decided to move the chip to the back for what ever reason 🤷♂️
Couldn’t enter the recycling park with my new eID. Kept trying while the queue got longer. Thought ok maybe something needs to be activated. I make a total ass out of myself telling the people behind me – while hanging through the window because i can’t open my door with the booth right there – to please back away so i can park on the side.
You know the rest of the story.
The worst part is that I’ve heard from a lot of people that the chip doesn’t read half of the time on those newer cards.
I can only think of one logical reason: So there’s more space in the front to put more information on it. If the card is inserted you don’t need to read it anyway. When you do need to read it you want the necessary information on one side.
Security hardening. Malicious actors can’t steal your data when they can access it. Clever!
Lol so I wasn’t the only one struggling, I actually bought a new card reader thinking mine broke, turned out you had to flip the card 😂😂😂 I was pissed when I found out
What is a computer engineer?
i use it so much (ie never) it wouldn’t be a problem for me.
It’s still on the front. They just put all the info that should be on the front, on the back.
