To contrast your single positive account with a single negative account, my brother has been unable to update his Estonian e-Resident card because the system only works reliably on Windows. He has to wait to re-activate until the next time he goes to Estonia. He has used the system from the outset and describes it as dated. It was built for a pre-mobile era and does not have a full-featured ecosystem for mobile devices. |

- Is there a trick to getting "Load picture" (my own photo) to work? All I've ever gotten is "invalid response," and this is on Windows, OS X, and Linux.
- Supposedly new Estonian IDs use ECC rather than RSA, but some articles seem to be confusing whether the once-vulnerable-but-now-regenerated IDs use ECC as well. I don't think that's possible, as the smart-card hardware doesn't appear to support it. Does an ECC key require new hardware for pre-November 2017 cards?
- For those of you who have been following Estonian ID technology for a while, why didn't they use regular OpenPGP cards that would enable cardholders to use ordinary PGP/GPG clients? Did the Estonian standard predate the OpenPGP standard? Or were there technical reasons the Estonian government needed something else?
