It's been about a month since American Express and Mastercard decided to stop requiring signatures for EMV chip credit cards. Now Visa is joining their ranks, making signatures optional for chipped transactions in North America.
"Visa is committed to delivering secure, fast and convenient payments at the point of sale," said VIsa's Dan Sanford in a statement. "Our focus is on continually evolving the market towards dynamic authentication methods such as EMV chip, as well as investing in emerging capabilities that leverage advanced analytics and biometrics. We believe making the signature requirement optional for EMV chip-enabled merchants is the responsible next step to enhance security and convenience at the point of sale."

Snowflakes can suck a dick. I've been yelling at the ones out front to get off my lawn for days now and their hippie asses are still there in the millions. The only good thing about them is they're fun to piss on.
My rights don't end where your fear begins.

I hear playing Slayer at high volume is the way to remove a hippie infestation.
The world is full of kings and queens who blind your eyes and steal your dreams.
