Chip and Pin - the answer to the card cloning problem. Not.

[Mike O'Dell]

the damnable part of this is that these deficiencies
have been known for quite some time. they were demonstrated
not long after C&P was unveiled as The Answer.

When confronted with this fact, Them What Be In Charge
pooh-poohed the issue, as they always do, as not a serious problem.
and now, it's deployed world-wide.

The difference between the idiots that run the global
financial system and the garden variety idiot is that
they have better tailors.
