[nfbwatlk] Chip visa cards

[Prows, Bennett (HHS/OCR)]

Yeah, but it ain't the clerks I'm worried about. Not only can people look at pin numbers at ATMs for example, they certainly hear us telling the clerk the number. Then all it would take is someone to lift your wallet, and ... no more money! (But, then again, I'm not paranoid, they are all after me! (grin.)

Well, I guess you're right.

I'm not aware that we will have to follow screen prompts of a machine; the chip cards should be just the same as others, i.e., the store's reader would just read what used to be in MICR numbers from a chip.
If I am wrong, it won't be any worse than point-of-sale machines; they are definitely a mixed bag for those of us who don't want to give out their PIN.
As for me, I don't care as clerks generally don't listen very well anyway.

It seems like the chip cards are going to be what we have to use soon.  I'm wondering about the accessibility.  You have to put the card in and follow the on-screen prompts.  Is this something the NFB might want to tackle?
