Show us a single case involving banks and proxies and we can talk.

A few banks I've worked with never supported HTTPS as a means to secure transactions - exactly because they can be hijacked so easily. They either offered their own programs or separate devices to sign the transactions. What's surprising is that these Internet-disconnected devices are making a comeback: I know they were receinly reintroduced at least in Raiffeisen.

Does it look like endorcement of MITM-in-https to you?
