TIL your phone apparently does no or easily spoofed authentication of the identity of the base station it decides to connect to. Anyone know more about this and how it's possible?

My bank (RBC) does, but luckily they also give me other options to choose from.

Tangerine doesn't, and they also can't get their website to work on firefox lol.

If your website requires a specific browser then you do websites wrong

I've never had a problem with their website on Firefox. What issues do you have?

[-] snoons@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago

It says the service is unavailable after entering my username/account numbers.

[-] dudesss@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

Should work. Although I've had authentication problems with Tangerine with Chrome and Firefox.
