If it's stolen as often as it is, it doesn't really "work so well". It worked well up until it started being used and stored on Internet-accessible machines. As soon as that happened, it utterly failed to "work so well".
If you want to know about its "supposed" insecurity, maybe read any of the hundreds of articles online about Target, Staples, Home Depot, PF Changs, Neiman Marcus, Goodwill, Global Payments, UPS, Michaels, and dozens more. I'm not sure what you're arguing, that magstripe is safe enough?
- TeMPOraL 11y agoMagnetic stripe is about as secure as your door key. It's all great as long as it sits in your pocket, but post a close-up photo of it accompanied by your address to Twitter and see how long it takes until the things from your flat start mysteriously appearing on Craigslist.
