> Wordlessly offered a credit card reader, Collison says he’d rather pay cash. Wonder why. Competitors’ device? Privacy concerns?

    Yeah I wonder if, after seeing how the sausage is made on payment processing (and making $95B of sausage himself), he doesn't want exposure under some other (to him) shitty system. It could also be some petty competitive instinct to stiff his competitors even a few cents or dollars in revenue.

    It's so basic. You gotta limit the cam. It's just too easy to do the spycam, I have a friend who did it to himself to see how hard it was. It was really easy. It's from like 2002, when they first came out. You know what I just did? I put a band-aid a guy sold me on the street, 2 cents, it's perfect, the cotton part over the camera and it doesn't leave residue. Restickable. Hardware kill switch right there...but for this problem, it's just a band-aid.
