      Seriously. Like I get that there was a glitch that let people access money that wasn’t actually in their account, but how did they not even consider that there would still be a transaction record of the damned ATM spitting the money at them?

        It’s not even a glitch. It’s literally a fraudulent check that they cash. It’s just fraud lmao.

          Yeah for real. Fraudulent checks have been around for decades. A buddy of mine got arrested for it in '03.

    People acted stupid about it, but also it’s not like they actually stole anything. Fuck Chase, they shat the bed with their software and now they don’t want to accept responsibility.

      Explain how abusing a process to give you more money than you are entitled to isn’t stealing.

        First you take your capital and force wage slaves to generate your profits for you. Then once the product gains traction, you make a worse and worse product over time and cut back on human rights for your wage slaves.

          This is the way.

        People willingly gave checks to friends that were larger than they could actually afford. Those people then attempted to withdraw more than the total value of the check after deposit, which was successful. Chase failed to validate their software for edge cases exactly like this, which could very easily happen in good faith.

        Let’s not forget that there are people who very likely did this out of desperation. Throwing them in prison or issuing severe fines for learning about a bug is disproportionate.

          You: If the police aren’t watching, stealing is just fine!

              I agree with that and we’re all sheep who put up with it.

            I’m surprised I don’t hear you screaming falling off that cliff.

            Where exactly in saying that throwing likely vulnerable people behind bars instead of you know, something more proportionate, did you hear them condoning it?

              You must be a Sov Cit. No reasonable person goes “oh it’s ok that they broke the law. it wasn’t their fault, the bank should teach them better”.

                  You’re the only one talking about screaming and I think you should answer your own question.
