It's pretty interesting to see the same Hacker News that is up in arms daily over privacy concerns get excited about handing over to a startup their SSN and other personal information that can be used to open any financial account on their behalf and continue acting on their behalf despite it being against the terms of service and/or law. This same startup will also hold access to the $10K+ account hostage until requested, unless they suddenly go out of business as nearly every startup does, especially ones that mysteriously don't even monetize the services they render.
