“Our great democracies still tend to think that a stupid man is more likely to be honest than a clever man, and our politicians take advantage of this prejudice by pretending to be even more stupid than nature made them.” —Bertrand Russell

Fuck Fiat! I’m beyond mad right now. I’ve been using Transferwise (now Wise) for years to send money to my mom in my country of origin once in a while. I was actually very pleased with their services, and I even used the Wise debit card on my last trip to Europe, and it worked very well. But now, I was about to send just $500 to my mom again and they are asking me to take a fucking picture of my driving license or my passport and a fucking selfie “for identity verification”!!! WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK??!!!! Is this how it is going to be from now on? They already have all the info about me they need; I even linked my checking account to Wise a long time ago and have 2FA activated. They definitely know me. But this is now not enough??? Fuck that, fuck fiat and fuck banks. I don’t know any Bitcoiner in my city of origin to help my mom out. Otherwise, I would send her Bitcoin. I will have to find another way, but I definitely not going to go through all these stupid, unnecessary and DANGEROUS loops just to send a few bucks. FUCK THAT!
