52 | <h2>23-07-2016: How banks are refusing to shoulder responsibility for fraud</h2> | ||
53 | <p>Banks are naturally unhappy about shouldering the cost for fraud, and use | ||
54 | various tricks to impose the costs on their customers without providing | ||
55 | adequate help to minimize fraud.<br> | ||
56 | With GNU Taler, cryptography ensures that identity theft and many related | ||
57 | types of fraud are no longer possible, allowing banks to offer customers | ||
58 | a payment experience where neither side needs to worry about fraud. | ||
