Exactly. Reddit isn’t my fucking bank. They don’t need to know who I am.
They don’t even require an email when signing up. At the same time they speed run to biometrics.
What a shit show they’ve become.
Your bank doesn't even need to know who you are.
On a related note, Bank of America, if you're reading this, my name is floop @lemmy.dbzer0.com, and I would like to withdraw all the money from my account. Nonsequential bills please!
The banks are legally required to know who you are. It’s part of AML and anti-terrorist financing laws
It’s called KYC or “know your customer”.
Who is floop?
I am floop!
We are floop!
I'm on to you Spartacus!
Whatcha mean, they obviously need to count the wrinkles on your dirty balloon knot.
Wow who's your butthole guy?
Wtf is this sorcery your post says "1." but when I reply its "37."
