Universal Music Group , Sony Music Entertainment and other record labels on Friday sued the nonprofit Internet Archive for copyright infringement over its streaming collection of digitized music from vintage records.
Just something funny: First time I donated to archive.org my bank blocked my card due to being a “suspicious payment”.
I had to physically go to the bank because due to security reasons I couldn’t unblock it in internet banking.
The high security looked like this:
“Hello. You blocked my card due to suspicious payment.”
“OK, what’s your name”
“[name]”
“I see. Did you make that payment?”
“Yes.”
“OK, I’ll send an e-mail to management. It should be unblocked in a few hours. Have a nice day.”
“Bye.”
They didn’t want to see my ID card, not even the debit card. Nor sign anything. Just and only hear my name. “Security”.
I had my insurance company ask me for my phone number for security purposes. It was an old one I had since replaced and forgotten, so they read it out to me and asked me to confirm it.
This has happened to me with my own bank sometimes, though thankfully all I have to do is call them, report the blocked payment, and answer the same useless questions that don’t really prove anything security-wise, and that’s it. I’m not sure why they insist on doing this song and dance, but at least I don’t have to drive all the way to one of their locations to get it resolved, lol.
