Are all Virtual Card providers careless with privacy?

How does privacy.com's privacy policy compare to ironvest's then? you specifically pointed out ironvest's privacy policy to compare, but only stated that you felt privacy.com is 'overkill'. i haven't check their policy, but if they have a rock solid kyc and a name like 'privacy' i'd think they'd probably do a bit better at not sharing your data with others than, say, ironvest - but their policy needs to be checked.

i have friends who use privacy.com and are pleased with it. you can lock virtual cards to specific merchants, or make single-use/burner cards. i don't know what else, but segregating merchants alone increases your privacy and reduces your risk, so i'd think you need to check their privacy policy and see how they handle your data, since that's a concern you pointed out.

Are there any good modern MP3 players?

Reply in thread

as an owner and regular user of the H2, i feel it important to point out that it also works as a USB DAC.

it also displays lyrics for anything you have .lrc files for - the collection of mp3s on my 512GB microsd card took me about a month to get lyric files for.  I created a set of scripts that would either look online and download them, or ran them through some speech-to-text on linux to create them from scratch.  This last part was critical as I have a huge number of old-time radio shows and drama which obviously wouldn't ever have lyrics for, but is a lot of fun to read along.

those two features (the USB DAC and the lyrics file support) are what sold me on the utility of this player.  Overall, it's a fantastic device and I enjoy the snot out of it.

How many of you actually message and communicate with congressmen and women?

i email mine almost weekly. used to get canned replies, but i haven't gotten anything in weeks. it's made abundantly clear the first time you get a canned reply from your rep that they know they don't actually represent you, and don't care. i still email them, because that's very little effort on my part, and could eventually be used as evidence when we the people finally kick them all out. 'could', i said
