> cash

How can you presume we do not pay with cash?! How can you remotely suppose one sane mind would not use cash for all sensitive private transactions - books, medicines, preferential (profiling) products etc.?

We use cash in general because nobody in Dignity would accept their own daily matters to be recorded and given to multiple untrusted parties¹, not to mention potentially retrievable by even more untrusted parties - of course the matter is much more evident for all transactions over confidential items!

(¹EU here: 12 public-hybrid-private DBs as per the PSD2 legislation.)

I haven't used physical cash in over two years. (I'm in the U.S.) I'm don't think I'm an outlier.

We know you are not an outlier, it is a grave issue that you are not an outlier.

Are the elements in your set aware of what they are doing?

I/we know and we don't care.

> we don't care

And why did you post that replying to mine, what is the message? We knew that you in the cashless are many.

Is it a cry for help - as you know what you are doing but cannot care? Ok: reread the "Book of Joe", which obviously you have heard of, and take your side. Both of them, really: one for morals, one at least for the mentions of the beast requiring its mark for transactions.
