Jesus. If the lines aren't clear to you by now, you probably don't have a pulse. All the leftists who were holding back during Trump are letting it all out now. Prepare to be persecuted, they are angry and want nothing less than your freedoms revoked.

You can take steps with email, browsers, etc. to keep corporations from spying on you.  Unfortunately, the banks know everything you buy unless you pay cash which is hard to use online.  I like to hear some ideas on this.  I simply don't like anyone "tracking" or storing data about my life.

I think the vast majority of people still don't realize that you are monitored and on video all day every day.
(Think capitol protesters)
Even if you stay in your rural bunker you still use your phone and credit card.
The computer you're on now leaves a record of every website visited.
BoA is not different it's only more accommodating on sharing information.

No one just handed over this info, it was under subpoena. If you're pissed, then at least be pissed at the right party. It's the judge who signed the subpoena. That's the traitorous little SOB.

ETA: if I'm wrong about the subpoena (not mentioned in the article but inferred) then I smell class action lawsuit since this doesn't fall under the usual mandatory reporting of suspicious financial transactions required under the patriot act.  This means the FBI is calling people terrorists just for buying guns and/or traveling to DC which is outside any objective definition in criminal investigations.

Between 0.1% interest accounts and now narcing on customers for lawful activities, I'd say a mattress is a safer place to keep your money.

I wonder how long before they just start stealing from "white supremacist" customers on the assumption biased courts will let them get away with it?

Truth.

Anyone starting to realize corporate America and .gov are one and the same?

Their business their rules, amirite?

We've al been complicit in the situation we find ourselves.

This is how there will be a defacto ban on online gun / ammo / parts sales.....they don't have to pass any laws, just get all the credit card companies on board and it's dead for most people.  It would be a small minority of gun owners that would go to bitcoin or something to get around it.

I used a temporary card for one of my earlier PSA purchases back when people were talking about info leaks. I don't remember what it was though. You could also try using a gift card.

That's fine.  They're just making it easy for people to not give a fuck when things finally get ugly.

They are Othering us, but that also means they are Othering themselves.  Any student of history knows where that always leads.

There seems to me like such opportunities for private businesses to spring up that cater to conservative consumers. I wish I was smarter and more motivated. I guess the left is doing everything in their power to hold these competitors down (see Parler).

Who do you bank with that doesn't charge you fees?

I like that at my bank but they don't have branches where I'm moving.

I have been been to inside my bank likely 5 times in 20-years so I'm debating the merits of not having a personal banker in the branch to handle the problems their bank causes me.

FWIW I haven't stepped foot in a bank branch in 15 years; I've been banking %100 by mail since 2005. I'm in MN, and the closest bank branch to me is in Chicago

Going online only isn't a huge deal, the only PITA is if you need a bank/cashier's check for something. Even then that should be just a phone call away. I've never needed a banker/cashier's check in that time, though YMMV.

I predict that before it's all done, no credit card companies will allow gun or related purchases of any kind. That's why you have to get what you need now, while you still can and can do it over the internet. I don't believe we will have that ability much longer.

I've said for a while now that the Government doesn't need gun registration. It just needs a way to track gun owners.

1. NFA Records  I have none.
2. CCW Permit Records   I have none.
3. State/Municipal Permit to Purchase/Own Records  Nope
4. Credit Card/Bank Purchase Records  Cash and carry baby!
5. Vendor Sales Records  Very few, most of my stuff has been F to F or gun show.
6. Social Media  Always thought it was stupid when I saw people posting their guns on SM.
7. Organizational Membership Records  None  FNRA!
8. 4473 Records and NICS/State Background Check Records  I have just a few of these, I mainly do F to F or Armslist.

It is all there to data mine.  Yes and its being done.

I watched the video on YouTube last night.  The fuck be upon BofA for turning Stazi on us.  In this case it seems like they turned over info if  you were in Washington D.C. or near it while making certain purchases, so it wasn't "all" gun-related purchases.

Still, it should serve as a warning that the day is coming when they may use your credit card records to accuse you of all kinds of shit.  It also opens the door for them to start declining certain purchases if they're gun-related.  I used to think as long as they're making money they won't deny purchases, but we live in a rapidly accelerating woke and doxxing culture.  

BUY YOUR STUFF NOW.
