• Cycling to the New Forest

• First time cycle route planning -- what's your go to?

• Big U.S. Banks Are Stiffing Account Takeover Victims

  Beyond 2FA, some type of chaumian cash like https://taler.net/en/ might help too. But the problem is really downgrade attacks. There are multiple payment systems (bank wire, check, credit card ) and if there is one insecure way to make payments, then the whole system is broken. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

  GNU Taler comes to mind but the adoption is not there. Source: almost 2 years ago
