So Microsoft just made their OS risky for financial transactions? Back when I was in QA we had a test where if someone could screen shot a credit card number or other sensitive personal information that was a P1 'can not be released' bug.
That was how they did a big retail hack a decade or so ago I think? Installed software that took screenshots every few seconds on the payment processor, then uploaded those screenshots to a third party device, which isolated the screenshots with credit card info and then the hackers had the credit card numbers.
