If you go to equifaxsecurity2017.com and give them your last name and the last six digits of your SSN, they can tell you if you're affected by the security breach.

Whether you are or not, you can enroll, for free, in a year's worth of identity theft protection.

If you enrol, you forfeit your right to sue or join in a class action. Read the fine print.

But they don't give the option to see what of your information was stolen. 143 million people all demanding full analysis and printouts of what of their data was stolen could do some serious damage to their bottom line.

I think I'll get a credit freeze instead. From what I understand that also cuts off a revenue stream of the credit agencies - selling your name to advertisers - which would be a good thing for the country.
