In my opinion, this is simply a distraction.
Where is the outrage over Target, Home Depot, et al carelessly storing and allowing credit card information for hundreds of millions of customers to be compromised?
Where is the outrage over my landloard losing my sensitive information and having no liability if/when my identity is stolen?
Use/abuse of data by companies is nothing compared to the damage that is done when data is stored improperly. How are we allowing companies to hold so much information that is so potentially damaging to us yet not able to hold them legally/financially accountable when our data is compromised because of their negligence?
I'm not sure what it would look like, but regulation and penalties should be focused on sensitive data storage not use.
