Well ok, now Plaid has your login info for your bank. How well do they protect it? What employees have access to your credentials? Are they unhackable?
A bad actor with your bank login and password could cause a LOT of mischief.
- deadbolt 6y agoI suppose I was misinformed about how Plaid worked. I was under the impression that Plaid was similar to OAuth, where they didn't actually have the username & passwords.
