#w/e the point is that this is literally visa and mastercard shills pretending to care about data safety so they dont have to lower fees

love getting youtube ads saying "oppose the durban marshal credit card bill, it lets credit card companies STEAL you data!!!" with a big "PAID FOR BY ELECTRONIC PAYMENTS COALITION" along the bottom and then googling the bill and finding out it aims to lower credit card fees and lessen visa and mastercard's monopoly over the credit card world. and just thinking "did they for real. call their lobbying group 'electronic payments coalition' and then think it wouldnt be obvious thats what it is? or that they have ulterior motives in opposing this bill?" like. you couldn't even call it like, the data safety coalition or something to try and make the lie look believable?

#fucking incredible #origibberish #literally the third link about then on google says theyre a lobbying group that represents the interests of big banks and credit card #companies #or sorry you have to google electronic payments coalition members for that to be the third one. whatever it was sourcewatch #w/e the point is that this is literally visa and mastercard shills pretending to care about data safety so they dont have to lower fees
