"They're portraying the negligent company as the victim!"
Perhaps that's why Experia's little breach never made the headlines. They couldn't be framed as a victim as the guy bought all the data legally. It's less than reassuring to ponder, depending on the "how" the data is used, anyone with a shell company, a little diligence and, most importantly, cash could buy this info, too.

- matt_wulfeck 10y agoHow have I not heard of this? What a train wreck. Why steal the data when you can simply buy it legally right from the source.
