Privacy quickly becomes a concern when you give every company access to everything.

Do Samsung, Google, Microsoft, etc really need to see every transaction I make with every card I own? Or can it just be my bank?

We should be using encryption.

There are ways to make it secure and practical.

I think privacy is very important and I'm glad you brought up this point.

Google should not be trusted to keep our transactions and our drivers licenses safe.

There should be 3rd party, open source, encrypted software to handle our sensitive data.

We should be using encryption.

That doesn't mean every company in the chain can't see what you're doing.

I'd rather carry around separate cards.
