@401matthall no that’s correct
most people in infosec don’t give a fuck about sec, they just want to control your info
@401matthall if most of them cared about sec: where is it
why do I keep getting worthless offers for free identity theft protection every time my personal info leaks
...
Hang on, that's not something I've thought through before...
You're saying your info has leaked from one service and _another_ service reaches out to you to offer free id theft protection?
...
Because the leaking party has... Shared your information with the third-party in order to sell you something...?
Tell me that's what your saying. That's the kind of delicious irony I need to fuel my morning anger.
@401matthall yep, it’s a common legal dodge for companies with massive data leaks
they offer their customers $XX million in “identity theft protection” that’s worthless, and it’s on you to redeem it. so they can say you were compensated for their mistake
this happens regularly, especially for medical corporations and credit bureaus you personally have never chosen to give any information to
