A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

There's a secondary problem.
If a user has money in their account and the app creator goes under, they lose access but the actual bank hasn't failed. Insurance on the account doesn't kick in because there's no bank failure to mitigate, but the user still doesn't have access to their money before.
These regulations weren't written with banking-as-a-service in mind, and don't hold up well now that it's not a weird edge case but a primary way companies provide banking services.
