They certainly don't look up in a database whether you are a citizen. OK, "citizen or valid resident / visa holder / having some other legitimate reason to be holding something that looks like an EU identity card", then. Whichever -- I was just simplifying. But something tells me that something at major border crossings (e.g. hub airports) has to at least authenticate your right-of-entry -- and that your travel docum…

As a government agency, of course one would not prefer to hire kid…

that sounds like hungary to me

Therefore this is absolutely normal -at least for us-, only thing that surprised me about this leak is this got into front page of HN. Those software "companies" take millions of liras, usually for stupid CRUD stuff, develop it in li…
