Ranting in the comments on someone else's post is not a friendly act. If you have some subject about which you feel strongly enough to post a rant, please do so at a site where ranting is allowed. It's not allowed here.

BTW, attacking Amazon for collecting credit card info is attacking the very way that I am able to run this site. If you're going to rant, even though ranting is not allowed here, please, use a bit of common sense about what subject you pick for ranting about. If no one EVER gave credit card info over the internet, BC would not exist. Neither would most of the rest of the internet except that tiny original part that is subsidized by the government and charitable organizations. Nearly all of which ALSO want to collect your credit card info.

Ranting on this subject is like telling people they should never handle money because of germs. Yes, germy money can promote disease. Yes, credit card info can be stolen in hundreds of ways including binoculars used at sporting events. Yes, dogs have fleas. This is not news and is definitely not worth disrupting the functioning of this website to make noise about it.

The rant in question, and unfortunately the replies to the rant have all been unpubbed. This all happened in about two hours while I was eating dinner.

Hugs to all,
Erin
