RE: Bent over and Hacked

it is so common that businesses don't even care anymore.

People don't seem to care anymore. They just see it as another inconvenience that nothing can be done about.

They offer you free credit monitoring and identity theft protection, but honestly by that point it is a lost cause.

And this is precisely what they have done.

Yeah, that is a good point. I don't get nearly as surprised as I used to when I get an alert that some company might have leaked my private data. I have a feeling most of my stuff is out there already. If I was worth targeting, they would have done it long ago!

It becomes complacency, doesn't it? Remember that often, those who might be using this data for gain, aren't necessarily the richest in the world - so you are wealthy :)

Yeah, good point. I do a pretty good job of watching my score and stuff like that. Probably not as close as I should.

I am not sure how the credit scoring works in Finland - I have never seen it.
