    Those are the threats, how often does it happen? How often is it blamed on software from a company that has somehow become untouchable? The day before I was talking with the guy that makes the software for gas station interface panels, I had one of those interface panels hit me up for my zipcode as they all did back in the day… I accidentally, but quite certainly, typed it in wrong and hit enter… 3 seconds later I’m approved and pumping gas. Software guy initially said that shouldn’t happen, but when I told him it happened to me at such and such gas station last Thursday he started hand waving about how sometimes the information isn’t actually verified…
