That's got nothing to do with PINSentry, and everything to do with
ignorant web maintainers.

Anyhow, PINSentry is bloody useless;  It only works when fiddling
around in your bank account on-line.  Most internet banking fraud
happens using card details at vendor sites.  If PINSentry was necessary
when making a purchase, it would have some value.  The way it works
now, it's little more than a damned annoyance.
