A comment on Walmart Canada stops accepting Visa cards. Parent comment
I think ACH is probably worse than debit cards.
We had some sort of discussion here a few days ago (I forget exact topic, maybe Swift?). Someone linked to why Donald Knuth no longer sends checks to people: http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/news08.html
It's an old rant, but if anything, things have gotten worse.
We desperately need some sort of cryptographically secure means of moving money. But it can't have all the baggage of Bitcoin.
