• #banking should not at all be done from "mobile" or "apps" because there's no room for #backdoors in financial transactions. But try telling that to governments which MANDATE back doors and pretend it's somehow possible to have security at the SAME TIME. Or officials who say that only criminals need #encryption (yes, banksters do need transactional security).
