    Why the fuck don’t receipts just show up in my bank / credit card statements?

      Do you want your bank to see everything you’ve purchased?

        Even banks don’t want to see everything you’ve purchased. That opens them up to a whole new avenue of subpoenas from police trying to prove crimes. They already have entire legal compliance departments dedicated to fulfilling subpoenas for financial crimes. They don’t want even more responsibility.

        No, but I want to see what I’ve purchased T_T. While we’re at it I’d like public key cryptography to see more use, haha.

          I guess you mean their cards.

          And they should only see the amount and counterparty, not your entire invoice.

            buys a single item from Bad Dragon

            They know where I spent how much money; probably wouldn’t take much to figure out what I could have bought in a situation like that where every individual product is slightly cheaper or more expensive than the last.

            They’d have to want to do that math, though.
