#OPSEC365 173/365
Financial aggregator apps have read access to all your bank accounts.
Mint, YNAB, Copilot, and similar budgeting apps use Plaid or direct bank credentials to pull your complete transaction history. Every purchase, every deposit, every transfer goes through their servers. Some sell anonymized data, others have been breached.
Plaid, the infrastructure behind most budgeting apps, aggregates transaction data from hundreds of millions of accounts.
