Funny thing is, people think their bank account number is private, but it's printed on every check they write.

- xp84 2y agoYeah, one of those funny legacy things from the days when convenience and cost of storing alternate identifiers dictated designs. Just like how my SSN was printed on my school ID that I presented at the library and dining hall 20 years ago. NBD!
- xp84 2y agoBtw by private info though, I just meant you need to actually create an account to use Zelle, PayPal, cash app, Apple Pay, etc. The account number isn’t as big a deal, just that it is annoying to have to make an account and agree to a 200-page EULA, with a random third party company you didn’t choose, just to receive some money you’re owed.
