The next debit card you get will probably have a little golden chip in it, and that's a good thing.

The chip will make it much less likely that someone can counterfeit your debit card and go on a shopping spree, so you won't have to spend any time calling your bank and arguing with them about who bought that stuff, or waiting for the bank to refund your money.

A deadline is rapidly approaching called the "liability shift." On Oct. 1, 2015, MasterCard will reprogram its computers to change the way it handles who pays for fraud to encourage EMV chip adoption

How is this supposed to stop Internet fraud? If someone has my number, no amount of security is going to stop the fraud.

You know it and I know it.  But it makes the banks feel good.  Down the line they will start charging you for the chip and use of the card.  They will have a foot in the door.
