Not quite. This makes ACH more accessible than it was before, which makes it that much easier to commit ACH fraud. Also, it is possible to layer a secure layer on top of ACH, but Dwolla didn't do that. They either chose not to, or they don't know how. They just exposed the ACH functionality directly.
