Re: [web-nfc] Write-only Web NFC variant proposal

Although this number may be slightly exaggerated, this particular issue (which I have mentioned on multiple occasions), is of _no concern to Intel_ who's primary objective (based on https://w3c.github.io/web-nfc/use-cases.html, earlier list conversations, and a Skype conference), is getting rid of _perfectly working_ "Apps" in mobile devices like e-passport readers.

High-volume, consumer-centric, security-critical applications are definitely out of scope.

Me neither, Web NFC is a classic "_Solution Looking for a Problem_"

Since my "raison d'ĂȘtre"  is designing crazy stuff nobody * wants, I guess will continue with that a while :-)


*) The Alibaba folks claims that QR is what the world want, not NFC
