EnableEscapeCommandline yes> This is the same failure mode of all security-through-obscurity. Secrecy means that bad guys are privy to defects in systems, while the people who those systems are supposed to defend are in the dark, and can have their defenses weaponized against them.

It's called PSD2 and it applies EU-wide since September 2019. Banks have to make _some_ form of API available to third parties. However, these third parties must meet certain criteria and get a license in one of the member states. This makes sense since they can access financial data, and they only have to do it once. So a fintech licensed in e.g. Belgium can access the APIs of a bank in France and vice versa. Since banks already have most of the necessary rules and paperwork in place, I've seen many banks themselves become PSD2 clients as well, offering customers the ability to manage "foreign" bank accounts through their app as well.
