Yeah, targeted ads are a thing for long time now. How do you think my bank adds pops up on reddit? Banks, Visa / Mastercard are selling your data to whoever so they can make more money so I’d rather have my Government have this data rather than private companies
As I’m still waiting to see those targeted apps I assumed people are idiots and blasting out their identity and interests all over the place…
PS: Also I was talking about actual finger printing. On the physical bills. To trace them through all the hands between me getting them from a bank and some bank getting them back.
They can simply request it from bank or Visa / Mastercard
And VISA does know how exactly that I just spent 50€ cash on crack?
Of course they know, they owe the payment network, why wouldn’t they know how you use their gear?
Keyword is cash
Not directly a European government but the US government has a lot of control over Visa/Mastercard.
Which get this information from all banks through constant finger-print analysis run on every bill returning to them? 😂
