Computer theft - Our trust in banks takes another hit

UNLESS you are very rich you probably rely on the banks to help you through life’s challenges. You depend on them, and pay them very well, for mortgages, business loans, car loans, pensions or whatever other kind of financial package you decide you need.

During that process the banks shine a light into every corner of your business, recording pertinent and some not so pertinent details about how you live your life.

You disclose these details because you trust the bank to respect the private nature of that information.
