9:12Tether stops. The job wants to read from a website it has never used, and one step costs about $1.80. It waits.
9:13Marco sees it on his phone, reads what it wants and what it would cost, and taps Approve.
LaterThe job finishes inside his daily limit. Nothing was spent or opened that he hadn't seen.
