Hi!
The news reports on 30 milion credit cards in Germany which no longer
works when using their security chip, since they do not handle the year
2010. Those with magnetic only cards still works.
It would be interesting to follow this news to see how this "feature"
was not handled and mitigated. There is probably a 15-20 year old report
lying around somewhere describing the problem in a side-note.
Cheers,
Magnus
