Thumbprint biometric sensors coupled with easily remembered numbers work for all my banking apps on my phone. It shouldn't be an inconvenience though. 

There is merit in 2 step verification when setting things up:

If someone hacks Morrisons and chores customer data they will have your billing address, card details, loyalty card details, so potentially DOB and phone number too. You get a phone call, answer it, say a few words then hey presto, They have your voice and personal details to play with.

 


 

Its the constant verify that annoys me. The fact that its 'easier' using the phone doesn't sit well with me.

Loose your phone and its a life stop. Steve Jobs, you've got to hand it to him, he saw/created the future.

Anyone else had enough of it all? No longer is a user name and a 10 digit password good enough its now also verify by email, txt message or use an authenticator app!

OK it isnt the hardest thing in the world to do but its just another thing to suck some more time out of your life.

 

 

 

There is no more privacy on internet.

 

A guy friend of mine who is an IT engineer at a bank ,showed how my smartphone(or any) can be hacked see everything in it ,even what the user IS doing on that "phone"(it's a high tech miniaturized computer allready) and the user doesn't even knows it.

 

I had my identity stolen some years ago, left without money in bank account yet NOBODY in the IT department team knew who the f...did it...

 

AND the guy used my gmail adress and several other accounts to  destroy in public my identity...

 Ah ,yes, Google said it was me who used it and did all of those things... 

 

That's one reason I use protonmail today. 

 

I'm on the point of leaving normal society and living on a farm with/WITHIN cows, sheep, chickens ,cats,pigs, etc...

 

Even had an offer from Monk in  Cecillville/California to live on his property.

And was about to do it...

 

But since Trump got in power ,almost nobody is welcomed in USA.

 

No matter who you are or what almost impossible things you can do...

 

 

A thing is certain : society is going down the drain. 

 

Happened in Roman Empire too...

 

Took about 2000 years for the world to get its sht together...

 

P.S. and romans didn't had tens of thousands of ICBM MERV nukes ready to launch at any moment...(even as I type this and you read it)... 

 

SO: this time society/world MIGHT go to "sleep" for more than 2000 years...

 

Probably ,more like 20000 years if at least 80% of nukes get launched/used...

 

And to be fully honest with you or anyone reading this : the world needs a break from these humans! 

 

Good day!

forgot about the video : 

see for yourself what nice place and what nice man Monk is...

I wouldn't mind if they scan my retina, thumbprints AND Dna... 

 

And those who steal money, identity or anything harming a law obiding citizen loses his/her right to beeing treated as a human beeing. 

 

I for sure am willing to do scary horror unimaginable things to the guy that did what he did to me. 

 

It's been a few years and still anger is within me just as then!

Talking of privacy on the internet I see now that crooks are creating false VPN ( supposed to make you anonymous whilst browsing ) to get your personal details and rinse you .  Every day there is something else you godda watch out for .l  still want to back to 1964  and use a pencil and paper .
