All I want is a password for my credit report. Maybe even a token for additional security. Fraudsters already have all my information. They have stolen it in 5 separate breaches including fingerprints and background checks. There is no putting that genie back in the bottle.
Article is corporate fluff. “Improvements and initiatives”, “governance” and “compliance”, “transformational” and “fundamental shifts”...
Their negligence exposed the most private details of over half the US population.

The whole "security based on SSN" system was a joke before. Thanks to these clowns, it's an outrage.

When are we going to see meaningful improvements, rather than just locking the stable after the horses were stolen?

When we decide to collectively remove the bought and paid for dinosaurs running this country through the ballot box.
