>In the US, which I might remind you, does not have a national law on the books regarding data breach notification. Our federal government is beholden to corporations, so I don't see any legislation ever happening to punish nor place a regulatory significance on breaches. If the Equifax debacle didn't move the needle, nothing will. How they didn't get a death penalty for not protecting one of the supports of our financial system I will never know. As the parent said, I've just assumed all my data will be breached eventually. When it occurs I dutifully sign up for the monitoring offered and make sure to review things on a monthly basis. Your comment on breach notification is spot on. WISH.COM has suffered down line breaches in their process and it is easy to prove by the use of virtual credit card numbers ... numbers that are generated and used at only one site. They have been silent when it is reported to them.
