- <p>Yasser Ali reports a now patched vulnerability in PayPal that
would
- have allowed him to reset other user's passwords and take over
their
- accounts. This is unlikely to be the last vulnerability found in
- account-based payment systems.<br>
- In Taler, customers do not have accounts with usernames, passwords
- or associated e-mail addresses. Instead, Taler uses reserves
which
- are represented by a private key on the owner's computer. Users
- create a reserve by depositing currency at a Taler exchange, and
can then
- withdraw digital coins from that reserve using the respective
private
- key. There is no limit on the number of reserves a user can
have, and
- even hacking the Taler exchange would not provide an adversary
with access to
- user's reserves (as the Taler exchange does not have the private
keys).
- Stealing in Taler requires breaking into each customer's computer
to
- extract the reserve keys or the coins from the digital wallet.

- <h3>13-11-2014: Visa and MasterCard's to move from passwords to
biometrics</h3>
- <p>Visa and MasterCard are planning to "simplify hated
verification
- systems" by moving from passwords to security codes on
mobiles
- and biometrics. Continuing their flawed insistence on verifying
identity,
- Visa and MasterCard will thus build a very personal picture of
their
- customers, from shopping habbits down to their cardiac rhythm.<br>
- Taler does not require a customer's identity to verify a payment,
as the
- payment system cryptographically verifies the coins. Thus, Taler
does
- not have to intrude into any personal detail of a citizen's life,
and
- certainly not their private medical data.

- <h3>15-9-2013: NSA follows the Money</h3>
- <p>Despite the EU allowing the NSA access to financial transaction
data to
- track terrorists and organized crime, the NSA saw it necessary to
- target international payment processors including SWIFT and Visa.
- As terrorism and organized crime are covered by legal means,
industrial
- espionage to improve the US economy is the only remaining US
national
- interest within the NSA's mandate that would explain this illegal
activity.<br>
- With Taler, exchanges will only learn the value of a merchant's
transactions,
- not who paid or for what (governments may learn what was sold).
Thus,
- the Taler exchange is a significantly less interesting target for
industrial
- espionage.
