The Gift of Privacy
- spiritplumber 13y agoOK, thanks for the HNvertisement. That's actually nice, but how do we know that you won't roll over when $govt asks for logs?
- middleclick 13y agoThey "say" that they don't maintain any logs...

- ajtaylor 13y agoI'd love to more about how gift cards in general work. Is it like a numbered swiss bank account where when you buy a card and the account number/password under the scratch-off on the back is your only access? Clearly there are multiple gift card networks, but how does a company go about getting a card setup for their brand/product? And how would a business like PIA be allowed to use other brand's cards? The idea of a gift card being a deposit would make sense in this case.
- rathbun 13y agoI like the concept. More for the consumer than anything else. I didn't try the demo, but it would be neat to be able to post multiple cards for a transaction. Is there mention of the cost to the merchant and or consumer? I looked, but did not see it in the expected places. Also how the merchant receives the funds would good to know. Apologies if it's in there and I did not see.
- nilved 13y agoIt's silly to use a US company and expect privacy. Expect that PIA is backdoored out the wazoo and avoid them entirely.
- don_draper 13y agoPlease tell me about these other countries that respect your privacy. I'm all ears.
- nilved 13y agoSeychilles, Croatia, Iceland, Ecuador. Are you a shill or just ignorant?
