No, I asked a quite reasonable question:
> Ok, now explain why I should trust a bank with my money, but not $any-internet-company with my personal info.
Instead of a good faith response, like, for example "money and personal information differ, here's why", you said
> Trust is an emotion, I won't rationalize it for you. You can distract yourself and others with math and rules and sturdy construction, but there's always sidechannels.
Which is mostly meaningless to me, and I'm quite confident completely meaningless to someone who isn't familiar with security.
