rcb has linked to a very valid concern in the realm of personal finance. I have often thought what a ridiculous concept the credit card in its current form is. Leaving nothing to the imagination your cc # can be finked with a single transaction.

While attending university in canada I found a credit card on the street and thought of all of the nefarious things I could do with it. The person who owned it almost got PWNED by a broke uni kid.

We shouldnt let good people do bad things by simply linking the cards biometrically to the card in a very simple way. PUT A PICTURE ON IT AT VERY LEAST. I know they started doing this sometime ago but most cc's still dont even have this very simple security failsafe.
