Our PII is leaked all the time. I am fed up with various businesses sending me a free credit monitoring subscription in lieu of actually having proper security controls or damages that incentivize viewing the issue as a serious going concern risk.

Leaks are inevitable, but the current situation is absurd. The liabilities and incentives to do anything about them are virtually nonexistent and security is almost always viewed as a cost.

I’m tired of it being my problem to fix. You should be able to know everything about me and still not be able to get accounts/credit/whatever in my name.
