blocks appear to be part of a crackdown on internal dissent in both countries.
Or… you know… at least for Venezuela, the USA constantly fucking around with their elections and politics and local assets using Signal or something. Maybe, I dunno?

Depositing checks is about the only useful thing I’ve seen on my local bank’s app, but that only matters if you do business stuff with people who pay with checks.
Wonder if there will be some Democratic attempt to do a reverse “Purple Heart Band-aid” thing with this?
Wearing tampons as earrings or something.
Not sure why everybody needs a copy of my, I mean, somebody’s porn passport.
Mostly because I’m not the most competent techie, I’ve been using VLC between my PC and iPhone, for moving “books” around on devices that are very out of date.
My two guesses:
As far as the USA goes, a chunk of what is considered “The Left” is pretty right wing.

We don’t have any formal education in actual Leftist theory. So a lefty person has to wade through years of libertarian and conservative/fashy economic theory stated as “the rules of the universe” and not everybody makes it through that jungle.
So not serious people with not serious arguments.
I’m pretty sure a bank has no way of anticipating (guessing) correctly what inflation is going to be 5, 10, 30 years down the road.
And I’m positive that banks are still lending on terms that far out into the future. So it seems like banks don’t care about losing a little bit of money as not lending means they lose out on a lot of money.
The loudest anti-inflation voices over the past 40 years haven’t come from the left. They’re right-libertarians railing about “Audit the Fed”. You should ask yourself why those temporarily embarrassed billionaires don’t like inflation. It’s definitely not because they have a sudden care about the working class on this issue.

Except that loan interest rates don’t change daily after you’ve taken out a loan.
Not to mention that the price of necessities doesn’t scale with your income.
A person making 100,000 a year and a person making 10,000 a year pay the same rate for things like bread and water and electricity.
I have a sneaking suspicion that the grocery store doesn’t set its prices based on this logic.
make a backup
Pffftt… coward.

Lower supply with a stable demand means an increase in profits. Doesn’t matter what decreases the supply. I tell you what.
Self defense is self defense, would we expect some different behavior from a country being attacked from outside interests with publicly accessible end to end encryption services?
