    Glad to see CFPB might be growing their balls back after Trump neutered them. When Trump was in power the CFPB took no action on complaints of unlawful conduct and seemed quite inactive… as if to just be managing their own office (like the EPA).

    That’s a great move. Instead of trying to regulate the baddies just offer a more honest, transparent consumer-respecting option from a public website that respects people’s privacy (CFPB does not block Tor, unlike #CreditKarma and #LendingTree).

    I would love it even more if they would also enable people to deselect banks they want to avoid, such as the shit banks on this list:
