I would lose far more if someone got my credit card info and used it.

Nope. The card company is out the money, not you. Of course, admittedly, it's still inconvenient.

As for debit cards, don't carry them. Ask your bank for an ATM-only card. Make sure it doesn't have a Visa or Master Card logo.

The rules about who is liable are similar for debit and credit cards. But with a debit card, the bank already has your money, and if there's an impasse, you have to sue them. With a credit card, it's the other way around: the card company has to sue you.
