Also, IBM built the original eCensus application in 2005 based on its own AIX operating system and WebSphere application. ABS tried firing up its cloud servers but failed miserably, and hence they had no option but to rely on IBM again, bec

WooHoo!! They hosted their website on AWS. And totally ignored privacy sensitive nature of census. Also deployed Google Analytics. And as with anything these days, added in a healthy dose of Trump. Neat work, guys. BTW, this looks like neat

If a pin is used with stolen card, bank will refuse to credit the charges. It is not covered under fraud.

1) No need to carry wallet when I was out in the field. 2) Stores do not get my card number and name. I always hated when something like even a restaurant would get my name. 3) If the card is reported lost and bank issues a new one, Apple

The big 4 want to boycott Apple Pay, and want to strong arm others into boycotting Apple Pay too. They want a mafia ruling, not amicable solution. This is the submission:- http://registers.accc.gov.au/content/index.phtm

Exactly, banks are wanting to create a cartel here to define industry standards so that they can roll out their own silos. Each bank having its own shitty payment app. As if the ridiculous Poli payment stuff was not enough. My bank does not

No. That's not what the banks want. The banks want to form a cartel to collectively negotiate with Apple, which effectively means no negotiation at all. They want to strongarm Apple to open up its NFC module to individual banking apps;

As someone coming from Canada to Australia, and who held the same viewpoint; you just need to experience Apply Pay. Ozland seriously sucks now when compared to Canada for me regarding NFC payments. Idiots are trying to create a cartel here.

I held same opinion as you, but then Apple Pay rolled out in Canada and I did a complete 180 after using it. It gives you freedom, as you never leave your home without your phone even while running.

I have never seen a clean taxi except once, and also 80% of drivers had broken machines and took me to ATMs instead. One guy even had his own square reader, which I thought was nifty. But the best part was discovering that our new home addr

Easy budgeting. No need to carry card. If your Visa gets lost, Apple Pay automatically updates to new card without waiting for a physical card. Some of the benefits that I have seen.

Isn't there something like Paywave there? I used it for 90% of my transactions in Canada. Only have to use Chip n Pin when going over $50.

Canada will provide better metrics soon enough. Nearly every bank there has rolled out Apple Pay system, and contactless payments are ubiquitous in Canada. Apple Pay is only available for ANZ here, while rest of the banks are rolling out th

Same problem. Don't know why namecheap doesn't support 2FA app like FreeOTP. Would make it so much simpler and more secure at least.

Microsoft Authenticator had this facility, the last time I used it. Instead of using 2FA; it popped up a notification on my phone, which I could then approve or decline. But you can have your mail configured to send email whenever there is

Caller IDs can be spoofed too. Around year back, I started getting calls asking me to stop calling them, when I had never called them in the first place. Then it clicked, someone had spam called by spoofing my number. What is googling going
