    Resolved Apps use PayPal Automatic Payments to stay logged in! PSA

    PSA: My teenage daughter wanted some junk from Temu. I chose PayPal for security, making sure to choose a one-time log-in. I continued to see charges, which my daughter acknowledged*. However, she should not have been able to make any additional purchases, as I specifically choose one-time use...

    So How Can It Be Determined A Vehicle For Sale Has Been Flooded?

    Seems like a timely subject with 2 hurricanes and over a million vehicles flooded. You can't rely on a service like CarFax to give you the straight poop. The fact may be hidden.

    Apple Pay Liability

    I'm trying to understand the incoherent policies of a local supermarket (a member of the Albertson's LLC megacorp) regarding Apple Pay. Like many American merchants, they're tardy about accepting EMV "chip-and sign" cards. The hardware is in place, but they haven't got the software ready yet...
