facebook wants to partner with your bank!

The first article says "At least one bank has already told Facebook “no,” -- and I'd love to know which bank(s) has said no.

Yet another reason why I won't participate in social media.

Are you saying TS is anti-social?!!

I don't know if this applies to Canada... yet but I do know that my bank has gotten very severe on their security policies. I can't even use a mobile app for it anymore.

In any case I do hope that "deleting" my account will help... not just deactivate but delete. I just went through the procedure and it says that I can log in and change my mind for 14 days and then it's gone. I never used it anyway... I created an  account because my sister and a friend are there... but honestly... I never found it useful.

There's a YouTube here with instructions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qUlr5vtM0s
They weren't exactly the "buttons" I saw on mine but was able to get there anyway.

I think that its only for people who use Messenger for purchasing?
Its so invasive, scary.
