Dutch banks are to take all their outdoor ATMs out of service between 11pm and 7am with immediate effect in a bid to stop gangs attempting to blow them up. The Dutch banking association says switching the ATMs off reduces the likelihood of an attempt to blow them up succeeding. One of the ways thieves try to blow up the machines is to place explosives in the money drawer which opens after cash has been pinned. The measure is one of several put together by justice minister Ferd Grapperhaus, finance minister Wopke Hoekstra and the Dutch banking association and will be reassessed at the end of January.

Having access to your own money 24-7 is a freedom. Having access to cash 24-7 is a freedom. I do not want to be restricted in any way! Many people work before 7 am. Many people need cash money before that time.

Am I the only one who thinks ATM machines should be called something else?
I think the porn industry pretty much owns that acronym at this point.
