The thing about this scheme is that it seems to amount to an extremely low tax on the accounts of the average user.
The big downside isn't really that people might lose their gift cards but that other horrible things could happen at scale 'cause who knows who the Gift Card Gang are really.
And the thing is here that the state, the broader authorities, are the only ones who have some incentive to act now about this. If it affected me, I'd shrug, I have no incentive. And the story everywhere with this is the state has become as short-term-ist as everyone else. And, what problems could possibly arise from that?? (posts and then checks outside for fire, poison gas and deadly disease).
