So a few family members use Google for mobile payment. They are aware of the privacy implications but are there any good alternatives? PayPal is just as bad and any other alternatives I found are crypto.
I was a heavy user of plastic payments, then I found Google wallet to be so convinient and easy to use that I used it for almost all of my cards. Then I realized the privacy implications of using those, so now I’ve fallen back to use cash: I use my bank cards only on the ATM to withdraw cash, and ocassionally I use my CC on big purchases or online shopping only.
Crypto has never enticed me enough.
Crypto doesn’t solve a problem, it prevents a problem from happening ( banking surveillance )
