Sorry. I'm not sure I understand your comment. Are you saying it is the bank's fault or it isn't?

EDIT: Thanks kbenson for clarification.

The banks did lobby hard to be able to shift the liability to customer when PIN is used so do they do care less and do care more about approved xactions/second than anything else.

He's saying it's like the banks threw up their hands and said "screw it", because that's how horrendously bad the security ended up being.
