In Singapore, lots of boomers are downloading scam apps from facebook lured by promises of discounts and free gifts, handing out accessibility privileges, and they’ll even argue vehemently against loved ones and bank staff when confronted.

Private company with long-term strategy VS public company chasing short-term profits to pump stock prices for shareholders.
