I can’t tell who is more stupid, the credit-card companies, or the people who signed up for the cards.

The people who sign up for the cards are more stupid. They’re the ones who will lose their identity when some 1337 h4x0rs scan their cards.

The credit card companies will profit on them anyways. They don’t care about people getting robbed or shit, they care about profit.

They will still make a good profit, and it will still be worthwhile for them to make them
