    You’ve never worked in cyber security, I see.

    It’s a cat and mouse game. Playing defense is tough.

      And you haven’t worked in pollution reduction, I see.

      Just because it is tough, doesn’t mean you get a pass. These companies decided to collect all this data, they are responsible for keeping it secure. Just like companies that do any kinda chemical processing are responsible for what they unleash.

      What would be ideal would be more political leaders seeing their data compromised. Maybe then we will start seeing fines for companies that think IT security doesn’t matter.

        Do you have Nation state teams drilling your barrels for the lulz daily?

        Agreed in principle, but your idea to financially cripple a company over a random breach tied to a vendors firmware fuckup makes 0 sense.

        The shit that would fill that void is ten times worse.
