Google: “Based on this feedback and our ongoing conversations with the community, we are building a new advanced flow that allows experienced users to accept the risks of installing software that isn’t verified. We are designing this flow specifically to resist coercion, ensuring that users aren’t tricked into bypassing these safety checks while under pressure from a scammer. It will also include clear warnings to ensure users fully understand the risks involved, but ultimately, it puts the choice in their hands.”
Thank god. I would’ve ditched Android for good if this went through, and while it sounds like it would be annoying for casual users to enable unverified apps, at least we can still install them.
It’s literally ONLY got an app. No web, no branches. They’ve become quite common and popular in the UK (like Revolut).
That’s crazy to me. I only use my local bank at their physical location. I feel like the fact that they exist in close proximity to their customers who can put hands on them gives them a little extra incentive to not do corrupt bullshit.
Eh I don’t think that’s an actual bank. There’s a lot of unregulated banking adjacent entities that are popping up without regulations or government backed security. Be careful when putting your money in any of these.
