they wont notice anything until it hits their wallets.

@lucifargundam i wonder if we have legislation that forces banks to perform bank to bank transfers like we do where ISPs are basically required to peer with one another.

@icedquinn
We do. It takes a long time to implement though. The only thing people would see would be banks with either stricter hours or closed altogether.

@icedquinn@blob.cat @lucifargundam@qoto.org There has been some recent movement on bank to bank becoming more of thing to sidestep eg credit card fees. But I don't think it'll help any with the recent de-banking.

@miscbrains @lucifargundam was thinking about that some earlier today.

a bank isn't allowed to say we won't hire you because you are black, but they are allowed to de-bank you without cause. that seems a little weird.
