But, lots of scams and corp theft in the past, so most high-end corps require it now.
Shrug.
Cuz giving a full API absolutely NEGATES the possibility of theft and SPAIZ!
The charade is just foolish at this point.

Yup. Hey I know. Make your own corp, don't demand full API, and see what happens.
Especially if you DON'T give them the keys to the kingdom.

If you're worth spying on/stealing from, people are going to get in.
My point exactly. And an API key is going to do exactly NOTHING.

As if that wasn't enough, some want full API for all accounts! My situation is rather unique for quite a number of reasons, and I find the prospect of giving out all of my API keys extremely unsettling.
Before you tell me, "you must have something to hide", ask yourself, are you comfortable with random people knowing who ALL of your alts are, what you are buying/selling, and where you get your isk from?
I also don't want to hear about how I fail at compartmentalizing my characters; I know how to transfer items between characters without it appearing on an API. I shouldn't have to act like a spy to get into a corp.

Sounds like something a spy would say No, but that sounds like something a spy would say
I once heard a spy say THAT! But he didn't provide anyone with his FULL API, so I can certainly see how he was successful. If only we'd asked for his API, he wouldn't have been able to spy!
