Oh, F It, I'll Pay Cash

The sad, strange saga of chip-and-signature credit cards adds another chapter with Walmart suing Visa for going the chip-and-signature route instead of chip-and-PIN like the rest of the world. And, yes, chip-and-PIN is more secure, but lest you assign all the virtue to Walmart, you should know that chip-and-signature costs the merchants more, and the lesser security means that they're on the hook for more fraudulent transactions. Either way, Apple Pay/Android Pay/Samsung Pay can't become the standard soon enough. (AP via Philadelphia Inquirer)
