Facebook wants your bank info too!

Warning! The below quote contains weapons grade irony.

Quote
"There are certain things, whether itʼs financial services, or banking where I donʼt necessarily want my friends to know exactly what Iʼm doing, right?" David Robinson, Facebook's director of global marketing solutions, U.S. financial services, asked a crowded room of bankers at a Securities Industries and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) seminar in New York late last month. "I want to be able to go in and have an experience with my advisor or my bank and have that be a one-on-one experience."

Because Facbook is well known for the private policy and security right? This is just one of those ‘What could possible go wrong’ scenarios!

Despite knowing about indoctrination I thought it was a good idea to put a human Reaper near my office. Now I am a sentient husk :(.

I'm going to have to temporarily suspend my regular lack of surprise at Facebook treating its subjects like shit. This is absurd.

Let's not get overly excited until Robinson says something in English.
I am an old man, and I've seen many problems, most of which never happened.
