gollark: Either way, the real-world credit card system... honestly seems woefully insecure and the only reason it works most of the time is the law and people being somewhat trustworthy.

gollark: I would be worried about the networking between the payment terminals and central server, too - if it's not secured properly people could intercept it and/or run attacks on it.

gollark: You *don't* trust the payment terminals, because people can go around editing the code on them to do basically whatever, and they have to read the card and contact the bank server.
