Good writeup! It certainly seems absurd for banks, investment firms, government services, etc. to just allow third-party analytics startups to inject whatever code they want in between the user and the product.
It's like if the bank hired contractors from Google, LivePerson, Tealium, and Yext to listen in on every phone call I make to the bank, for "analytics purposes". Um, is it really necessary for them to hear my account number and everything? Oh, you say they're plugging their ears?
