Europe is bracing itself for a big shake-up in how we pay for things online, which will have significant consequences for businesses across the region. Similar to how GDPR hugely impacted how millions of organizations handle personal data when it was enforced last year, Strong Customer Authentication (or SCA) will have profound implications for how businesses handle online transactions and how we pay for things in our everyday lives when it is enforced on September 14.
SCA will require an extra layer of authentication for online payments. Where a card number and address once sufficed, customers will now be required to include at least two of the following three factors to do anything as simple as order a taxi or pay for a music streaming service. Something they know (like a password or PIN), something they own (like a token or smartphone), and something they are (like a fingerprint or biometric facial features).

You completely misunderstand the issue.
It's not that cash is inherently better than any other medium of exchange (well, aside from barter), it's that the evil socialists of the deep state are going to great lengths to identify and locate every single white male.
Because they hate America and want to destroy it. They will do this by pinpointing the location of each white male (via their credit card purchases and cell phones), kneecapping [wikipedia.org] each one and then forcing them to watch the invading Muslim hordes (hidden under the skirts of every Guatemalan woman trying to get "asylum" in the US), rape their wives, daughters and sisters. But that's not even the worst part, as those big, beautiful darkie cocks will make every woman understand what they've been missing all these years.
The deep state (despite, as those who've defined it don't make clear, contains mostly white men) hates white men and is doing everything it can to harm the US, its economy (despite the fact that they live there) and destroy the paradise of freedom that has existed in the US since 1565.
We must only use cash and never take the same route home twice, or the next thing you know (this is scheduled for the week after next), every white man will have holes in their knees and images of their women sucking big, beautiful, hard, glistening, throbbing darkie cock burned into their brains for the rest of their short-ass lives.
That's why people use cash. If you don't use cash, you hate America and are a pig racist who hates white men! But don't worry, the big, hard darkie Muslim cocks are coming for you too!
