Those of us in the EU are pretty worried about it, so I can imagine it's not going to be fun for folks whose countries haven't even had a say in it!

An interesting look at why you'd want to work for a startup, not a tech giant - although not everyone will have the same experience.

Ah fair enough. Have you blogged about it before? Would be quite cool to read about it!

I guess, that's a fair point. Would still be good if we can improve the usability of password managers for not-as-technical folks

I work on Open Banking APIs for a UK credit card provider.
A large reason I see that the data isn't made directly available to the customer is because if the customer were to accidentally leak / lose their own data, the provider (HSBC, Barclays etc) would be liable, not you. That means lots of hefty fines.
You'd also likely be touching some PCI data, so you'd need to be cleared / set up to handle that safely (or having some way to filter it before you received it).
Also, it requires a fair bit of extra setup and the use of certificate-based authentication (MTLS + signing request objects) means that as it currently sits you'd be need one of those, which aren't cheap as they're all EV certs.
Its a shame, because the customer should get their data. But you may be able to work with intermediaries that may provide an interface for that data, who can do the hard work for you, ie https://www.openwrks.com/

Some interesting points in here that reinforce my thoughts about the difficulties of knowing what the right version number should be - although I hugely push for and use SemVer.

Have you by any chance heard of the #IndieWeb movement? We've got a great group of folks who are looking at what it means to #OwnYourData and #BeYourOwnSocialNetwork
I've written about it https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/10/20/indieweb-talk/ and we've got a large wiki too https://indieweb.org/why

Thanks for sharing - I've been wondering about getting it since getting a Switch and may reconsider
