- ttrrooppeerr 4y agoI want to add this to my list of fuzzing words for text fields but... will this breach GDPR?
- pelagicAustral 4y agoI've seen stuff like that. Well in fact, nowhere near, but long names or last names. I did while working on some desktop implementation to interface with passport scanners. Passport authorities will clearly not print the whole thing. So for a name like this you will end up with something like: Adolph B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z As for the last name, I've never seen something like that but I figure they would put the whole thing in the annotations page of the passport along with a note or asterisk in the last name part of the MRZ. This can be seen in Indonesian or Indian passports due to the amalgamation of names based on regional customary. So you could store a partial of the name on the last_name field and the rest on a standard text field for comments.
- fallat 4y agoWow, thanks for sharing, I was wondering about that! Very nice to know :D
