I’m so tired of seeing ads for these things.

Where do I put my cash? Where do the coins go? Where do I keep the photo of my cat? What if I have more than 5 cards?

Why is it so expensive?

THIS IS NOT A GOD DAMN WALLET!!! You might as well tie your 3 cards with a rubber band and call that a wallet!

FUCK YOU

      wireless skimming

      The issue has been mostly solved by encryption, but there’s a constant arms race going on between criminals who do this stuff and the payment companies, so an extra layer of protection makes a certain amount of sense (until you beep your card as a gas pump that has been compromised).
