Correlation may not be causation, but I have a four year old CC that is just used for online subscriptins and purchases (netflix, hbo, apple, amazon, intuit, airlines, phone). Friday AM, I threw caution to the wind and used it at a smaller retailer site and software vendor. Within an hour I had a notice from my bank that my cc information had been exposed and a new card was being sent to me. I don’t like a world where I have to be paranoid and minimize the vendors who get my sacred numbers/business, but from the headlines and experience not many others are willing to be paranoid enough about security for me.
