I worry about PIN and DCC more than signature. Or even signature pads like El Cortes Ingles or Lotte for the matter.

It'll be rort paradise if banks like Bank of China will be allowed it. Their terminals aren't in any compliance program, they can be hard wired to "yes" DCC all the time. There'll be nothing for cardholders to write.

I think this is already currently permissible in Europe, so Harrods and Gallaries Lafayette are allowed to collect DCC decisions at the POS. God forbid China be allowed to join in.
