They don't code them themselves, they incorporate scripts from a dozen other websites. Things they have no idea about, and no control over. Trying to research something to buy, say a desklamp (i.e. nothing special, at all), entails browsing dozens of sites that don't work if you don't allow this jumble. There's gallery scripts, comparison scripts, shopping cart scripts, advertising scripts, tracking scripts... I get peeved at banking sites that do that crap. Firstly, they should just stick to one job (such as letting you manage your personal finances), steering completely away from advertising crap at you. Secondly, every third-party thing they add to their website is a potential vector for a security breach. You would think that banks, of all services, might recognise that. Also, it's *my* money that they're using to fund everything they do (and every other account holder). We should be being paid interest, not milked. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.118.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Apr 24 16:01:50 UTC 2024 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
