Privacy is the ability for an individual or group to seclude themselves or information about themselves, and thereby express themselves selectively.
Yes, US Banks, famously the picture of honesty. If you know one thing about the US banks it's how honest they truly are. If you know two things the other is probably the depression or the 2008 financial crisis, don't worry about that though, they're as trustworthy as the CIA which has definitely stopped all those nefarious things they did as soon as Alan Dulles died.
Not being from the US or Canada I don't know the first thing about your banks or the CIA. That said, it just seems ridiculous to me that a bank would control you through the management of your money.
To you, because you don't know the first thing about our banks, no offense. If you did you wouldn't trust them either lol. It seems absolutely plausible they'd do it imo. They already do it with criminals to an extent, which could be argued as fair I suppose, but I don't want to see that expand at the very least.
