Does this mean that Visa, AMEX and Discover don't sell our data? I agree. Just curious if I should be preferring a specific card company.

- thephyber 3y agoNone of the big 4 networks in the US don’t sell data. Best to opt-out of each that you use.

- thephyber 3y agoA 5 second search on Google shows Reddit r/privacy has threads for each of {AMEX, Visa, Mastercard, Discover} opt-out of marketing links. I would argue that data brokers are so prolific in the transactions processing space that we should assume the onus is flipped and assume all companies are doing it until they can prove they aren’t (which is a pretty difficult task). I also realize that other countries/governments regulate this space differently, so I’m speaking specifically about the USA.
