Kind of sad how a major data breach is basically a nothingburger nowadays 

The market shrugs it off, people are too exhausted to care, and antiquated KYC policies don’t change

When a society lacks the collective will to change clearly detrimental patterns, it has accepted its decline (the opposite of “it’s always day 1”)

I tried talking to my family about this and their response was "Everyone has all my info anyway."

I find it terrifying that my information is out there and I have zero recourse to get it back.

I find it infuriating that it's there through no fault of my own.

The outright refusal of companies to provide their service to you if you don't provide them data they deem mandatory is to blame.

I gave my email and phone number to far too many things as a basic sign-up step before I realized the damage. It became entirely normalized and the average user had no idea what was happening on the backend.
