at how much the banks and businesses are losing to online hacking. My log-ins to ordinary sites have now instituted yet another layer of security and a few people have had the same experience I had, of money being taken through the debit card and neither the police nor the bank fraud department going to the address where items were posted to talk to the occupants and fine out if they were thieves.
The Internet was always going to be brilliant at distributing information. It was not set up to transfer money because fundamentally digital information is never safe if someone with the knowledge wants to access it.
But try keeping business out. They are losing billions now but it is less than the money they’re saving from the cheaper access to business online than employing millions more people offline.
