And bringing up malicious code and immediately bringing up Square's defense as if someone will automatically think it's them...why? The OP never even mentioned any malicious intent nor did I. Why even bring this up? And no offense meant here but, your armchair-technician posts are not a qualification.

Sure, I didn't use the WORD "unlikely", I said "far-fetched idea", which means ... unlikely... I would post my actual credentials if the industry that I work in weren't the financial industry. I don't care if you believe me or not, and I understand that without actually presenting my credentials, you likely won't, but I'm CIO/CSO for a chain of credit unions. I'm QUITE qualified to comment on the matter. I'm also a far cry from an "armchair-technician". Your comments have not been helpful in this thread whatsoever. You have done nothing but argue with me and feed the OP in his assumption.
