Don't most servers always take your credit card out of your line of sight?

The point here is that it's the only place we went where that happened. If we went somewhere else and I paid cash, but he had his card taken out of line of sight, that place wouldn't be a candidate for fraud on both our cards. Or if we both used cards, but the server brought out a cube scanner on a smartphone, that place wouldn't be a candidate.

In another 5 years, they probably won't take it at all.

In canada, the server brings a portable cc machine to your table for you to pay your own tab.

It is becoming more common in the PNW too. I imagine it will catch on and in a few more years, servers will carry a portable machine and not physically take your card anymore.
