Someone please tell me what the point of this exercise is?
The employer's address will no longer be printed on the card. Great for privacy, right?
Wrong. The free app still allows pretty much anyone to scan the QR code and display all the details on their phone.
So how exactly does this protect the employer from, say, harassment by loan sharks whom the FDW owes money to?
In fact, not displaying the employer's address on the card has the downside of discouraging good samaritans from directly returning the card to employers if it's convenient for them. Especially if they're not tech savvy enough to scan in the code.
I simply don't get it. Maybe I'm missing something.
