In this thread - "You can do X to make it private."

In my view, that is not addressing the main issue with Venmo. Socializing financial transactions shouldn't have taken off from back of the napkin stage. It is simply unbelievable on 2 fronts: 1) Such an app exists and is doing fine 2) People simply do not care about their privacy.

I am utterly speechless.

Who in the right mind opens up Venmo to just browse what kind of transactions are being made amongst their friends? What kind of social engagement is this? How did the creators of Venmo pitched this idea to investors? So many questions.
