Today we begin exploring the topic of going cashless. Going cashless is when a business opts to no longer deal in cash and only accept payment by other methods, like credit or debit cards or mobile pay.

Today we begin by looking at the argument against going cashless and look at some of the reasons why some people argue against it. We look at how going cashless can affect certain demographics and some of the risks of relying too heavily on technology that can fail. We also look at the argument that going cashless undermines consumer privacy and how that can shift our perception of personal autonomy and liberty.
