Plaid also allows its customers to scrape 24 months of transaction data from bank accounts, and gain a constant stream of data about ongoing transactions from the bank account.

It’s a very intrusive data-mining service that should not be trusted with bank account credentials, at-least if you care about data privacy.

Change your bank account password, and you may even see Yodlee (like Plaid) trying to login to your bank account every night to scrape daily transaction data based on some ’bank verification’ you previously gave to some app or 3rd party.
