According to the German ADAC the ranking is somewhat opposite :)

What strikes me is the comment on 3DS challenges that passed.
By law in Europe, once 3DS challenge is completed the Bank owns the risk and cost of the chargeback NOT the Online Shop. Can someone tell me how this is implemented in common processors ? Any experience?
> It losslessy compresses images to a similar size of PNG
It's worth pointing out that in cases where PNG is still the most reasonable format to use, compression gains are frequently left on the table. I frequently see 20-30% additional compression with tools like ect ("efficient compression tool"), oxipng, and zopflipng, and that's starting with images that are already pretty well compressed (using the strongest settings available from traditional PNG libraries). In other words, even PNG compresses better than PNG. :-)
Case in point: I downloaded the sample images in the zip on the page and recompressed them with ect. It took only a few seconds, but 4 of the 7 sample images could be further compressed by more than 33%! After compressing them as much as I could achieve, the resulting PNG images were only 77% the size of the QOI images. Compression gains of 23% are nothing to sneeze at when it comes to lossless compression.
Of course, that's not to say that something like QOI wouldn't be useful. Even if it wasn't, I do love seeing tiny but effective implementations of algorithms like this - well done.
One word: throughput
What strikes me in this "comments/rebuttals" is that they mostly miss Moxies' main points and underlying critic. Some comments are pretty obvious and certainly understood my moxie...

Digital signature would prevent that (assuming scanner does a good job at verifying one). "Looking at the hexdump" section of TFA, last 64 bytes (cyan-coloured).
On top of that, online verification (e.g. by certificate ID) might be possible, too.
Yeah, didn't fine the hash in that JSON
Luxemburg’s Data Protection watchdog refuses to show its teeth to US companies. noyb files court case
In a recent letter, the CNPD further clarified their argument as to why they don't investigate the several breaches of the GDPR (Legal Basis, Purpose, Transfer, EU Representative) for thousands of Luxemburgish (and hundred thousands of European) citizens. Highlights are mine.
The Original model shows the FRONT, the speed version shows the BACK of the corvette. It's a completely different picture. This is not similar but strikingly different.
