Are there any FOSS alternatives to privacy.com? I want to conceal my actual card information when registering with a new account on different platforms so I can create limits, but I can’t shake the feeling that privacy.com probably just sells my transaction history. If there’s any alternatives to privacy.com that are more transparent, I’d love to know!

even privacy.com will KYC you
KYC?
Know. Your. Customer. Basically they verify your identity before providing you with any services. It’s a common phrase in the crypto space.
I assume you mean the cryptocurrency space? I haven’t encountered in the cryptography space.
Yes, “crypto” typically refers to cryptocurrency, not cryptography, in my experience.
It’s not a cryptocurrency term, it’s finance.

Crypto does not require any services. But if the person you’re trying to send to doesn’t accept crypto then you can’t send it.
…no? It just means that they don’t necessarily know every little detail about you before you start using their service. What comes afterwards is up to whoever wants to track you. Most crypto currencies are pseudo anonymous at best.
Know your customer
Thanks
