#KiwiBank internet banking now comes with DataFarming scripts from 4 different third parties;

* dynatrace.io
* googletagmanager.com
* launchdarkly.com
* qualitrics.com

That's on top of the third-party scripts for the internal notifications, provided by atomic.io.

That's on top of the fact that source code for KB apps is not available to customers under a free license, allowing them to rely on security-by-obscurity instead of security-by-design backed up by peer review.

Thanks to KiwiBank selling off their KiwiSaver scheme to Fisher Funds, I'm now inadvertently investing in a range of disgusting corporate activities, including animal torture, fossil fuel mining, and fucking Meta and Uber;

Does anyone know of a KiwiSaver fund that doesn't invest in animal torture, fossil fuels or technofascism?

"Tell us why you're making the payment

You may be asked what the payment is for, for example paying a friend or a bill.

This helps us show you scam protection tips based on your payment purpose."

Sure, this is why they want to collect data on what people are doing with our money. Also I really do own the Auckland Harbour Bridge and totally have the right to sell it to you for a price that's too good to pass up ...
