I'm not sure people would connect with that. Like if Adam and Eve published that some random person ordered a dildo, the public reaction is likely "meh" for everybody who doesn't know said person. Publishing that a congressperson ordered a dildo or butt-plug would get peoples' attention pretty fast- and might accelerate change. I'm starting to warn people not to go to WebMD and similar sites because of recent events.

Perhaps- but the reaction every common person has to the possibility that the next name will be theirs would incite involvement. Switch to the congressman every Friday or something, and randoms in between.

  That might work.

With all the data mishaps these days, I never heard about WebMD. Care to elaborate? A search for WebMD+Leak does not give me results I would choose to click if I didn't have to. Coincidentally enough, most people(even in tech) didn't hear about the Experian leak, perhaps that was because 1)The data was sold "legally" to the actor 2-∞)...[reasons]. http://krebsonsecurity.com/2014/03/experian-lapse-allowed-id-theft-service-to-access-200-million-consumer-records/ http://krebsonsecurity.com/2014/03/experian-lapse-allowed-id...

  No- not a leak, but the idea that insurance companies will be interested in your browsing history.
