What can be done to loosen card companies' grip on this? It has been a constant problem now for decades.

It absolutely does affect me for disproportionately fraudulent activity to exist on the same system I use for routine payments. I don’t want to subsidize cc abusers with the cc processing fees I implicitly pay.
