> cash
How can you presume we do not pay with cash?! How can you remotely suppose one sane mind would not use cash for all sensitive private transactions - books, medicines, preferential (profiling) products etc.?
We use cash in general because nobody in Dignity would accept their own daily matters to be recorded and given to multiple untrusted parties¹, not to mention potentially retrievable by even more untrusted parties - of course the matter is much more evident for all transactions over confidential items!
(¹EU here: 12 public-hybrid-private DBs as per the PSD2 legislation.)
I haven't used physical cash in over two years. (I'm in the U.S.) I'm don't think I'm an outlier.
We know you are not an outlier, it is a grave issue that you are not an outlier.
Are the elements in your set aware of what they are doing?
I/we know and we don't care.
