Most military planes aren't unstable.

A Gripon, Taifun or Raphael or an F15 Eagle etc. flights just fine without any computer doing "stuff behind the scene".

Unstable are some planes that are optimized for stealth, or other reasons. Even an A10 flies just straight if everything is switched off and the pilot releases the stick.

In Thailand the rice production is not up.
It is a catastrophe.

Sorry, you are completely misinformed.

The former greatest rice exporter of the world is now in dire problems, regarding every home grown food.

And Germany is the same. Winter grains get harvested in April or May already, and then there is not enough water to plant anything else for the rest of the year.

I have no malware on my computers :P
Nor on my phones.

A dedicated device makes sense - until you need 10 dedicated devices for 10 different services.

And: I do not carry the dedicated device around all my time. So, now I need my dedicated device behind a nat router at home, but accessible via internet to use my phone to access to it, to do my dedicated work. Well, I use my bank's phone app to access my bank, from my phone. Much more simple.

Same with a gasoline car on 80% - what is your point?

And: I do not work in a job where I have to have out of no where a note to drive a car with 100% fuel somewhere.

If that ever happens, there would be an helicopter outside.

You are basically taking a chance that your day is normal. my last 10,000 days were normal. And I suppose my remaining 10,000 days will be quite normal, too.

They have a constitution like any other country.
Focused on human rights, just like in any other country.
Slavery is forbidden in China, and people caught holding slaves, face death sentence.
Beginning this year about 15 Chinese and Burmese slave handlers got executed - for holding kidnapped Chinese slaves in Myanmar.

Yeah, sure, you can access my phone remotely ... how?
You can add to my banking app a new recipient ... how?

You can transfer all my money, fake my face recognition, bypass the security set up in the banking backend: how?

My transfer limit is 20,000THB - and requires face recognition. My monthly transfer limit is 50,000THB.
You can not change that with "hacking".
- you have to change it
- I get an SMS
- I have to approve it
- it takes 3 weekdays until it is active
- and: requires face recognition to get activated

The bank locks the account if there are "suspicious" transfers from my phone. So circumventing my 20k limit by sending 40x 500THB: simply does not work.

You stupid app haters, are just idiots.

The German Banking app I am using, has a second app as companion, for "push tan confirmation".

You have to "hack" two apps to get the first one doing nonsense.

And: the damn article is about ATMs no longer using magnet cards, but using the app in synchro with the ATM.

In Thailand, you are in front of the ATM, and scan its QR code. Then the ATM activates, and your app asks you: "do you want to interact with this ATM"? And then you say "yes", and the ATM starts with the greeting screen.

What is there to hack? You take my phone, break my phone unlock code (how?), find an ATM, unlock it with my app (How? You broke the app PIN, too? How? The PIN is not on the device - it is on the bank server.)

So, you managed to hack everything, get video taped while standing in front of an ATM with my mobile phone and my app, and think you can now magically pass the transfer limits?

Seriously: you American Yahoos have no idea how modern banking works ... and how retarded your ideas about "hacking" are.

Mine isn't.

No idea what kind of phone you have that a remote attacker can find tour banking app and "hack it".

This is an absurd stupid idea that a random attacker can access your phone when you are passing by an ATM and can sneak up behind you, fetching the money you involuntarily dispensed.
