all security people forever: never enter your password on a different site

services nowadays: give your bank password to this sketchy third-party data harvesting company to enable payments

so the service I'm posting about (#Yardi) has a secret override where it says "you only have 3 attempts to add a bank account!!" but what it really means is if you try 3 times (but just cancel without logging in to a bank) then it stops trying to get you to use the sketchy third-party data harvesting company and lets you use the normal routing number + test deposit method
@aburka a classic of the genre
