It feels like every other day there's 'the largest data breach in history' and at this point, I really don't trust any entity to safely and securely store PII.

That said, I like buying things on the internet, I'm not into crypto and would rather not include my real card information during checkout.

Any recs would be appreciated, thanks yall!

This bit from the article makes me feel a bit better about the whole thing:

A hacked NFC reader would only be able to steal mag-stripe credit card data, not the victim's PIN or the data from EMV chips.

So at least it'd be limited to the mag-stripe data, meaning tokenized payments and tap are still secure for the moment.
