On evil

“Across Lloyds Bank, Bank of Scotland, Halifax and MBNA, we do not accept credit card transactions involving the purchase of cryptocurrencies,” a Lloyds Banking Group spokesperson told MarketWatch. “It’s a case of protecting our credit card customers from the risks associated with the price volatility of cryptocurrencies."

So the banks see a threat in Bitcoint and they don't even care to come up with a proper lie to argue why they should kill it. They'll "protect" the customers by limiting their possibilities to purchase things using their cards. Bah! Net neutrality is nothing compared to this. Where is bank neutrality? They should not give a fuck about what their customers chose to purchase as long as it is legal.

Bastards!
