iTunes Security Questions or Apple Gone Wild

What's up with this idiotic trio of security questions? I just tried to download an app to my iPt4 and was hit with a request for my password and then assaulted by a Security Info screen wanting me to pick three security questions and answers.

This is getting ridiculous. Apple thinks it's a bank now. This should be optional.

Apple Institutes Security Questions for iTunes & App Store

Quote:
Apple began asking iTunes and App Store customers this week to choose and answer three security questions for their accounts. The questions are intended to be answered in the future for issues relating to account security.

The questions appear when downloading an app, song, or books through iTunes. The screenshot below was taken on iTunes on a Mac, but they will also appear on iPhone or iPad if that’s where you next access iTunes or the App Store (see note below on who’s seeing them).

Users are asked to enter their iTunes account password, and are taken to a screen where they are asked to choose three questions and provide the answers for those questions, as seen in the image below.
