I'm more looking to keep legal transaction data private in the sense of not being shared or sold. If that's even possible ever-the-more.
Best option I can think of is privacy.com
You can create virtual cards linked to your bank account and the transaction data is masked when processed by you bank. All my bank transactions show up as NSA Gift Shop. My bank doesn't know where I'm spending my money. Yes you have to trust privacy.com...
Yeah i guess it's too much to ask for open source for this. Privacy.com actually looks like a good option. I will check it out. Thank you.
What about just wire transfer? Everything goes through your bank anyway. That’s what I’ve replaced PayPal with a while ago.
Thanks! That had not occured to me. The purchases i would use it for would generally be small amounts, so i wonder if that would be feasible.
I think there is CC masking service Lois rossamnn shills that that's prolly easiest route for what youa re looking.
Never heard of Rossman... looks like an interesting thing he's got going. Thx
Yeah if you are down this path it was inevitable for him to come up. He got a lot of hot takes which are not that very hot once you think about it.
