No.
Credit Freeze does not stop them collecting data on you. Or your data being reported to them by just about anyone...to include the phone company and the garbage collector.
Every one of the top 10 officers in the company are guilty of criminal neglect.
And must stand trial for it.
This is not your average “bad breach”. It’s the worst possible scenario.
The potential damage is incalculable.
Additionally, this company must be sued completely out of business. AND their top 10 customers need to be held liable for not performing their due diligence on the effectiveness of Equifax’s Information Security posture.
Yes, their customers are liable too. They provided the data to a company that demonstrably IS NOT SECURE. Did Wells Fargo, Citi and BofA conduct their own information security audits? Did they attempt intrusion?
Nay, they too are liable.
There’s a lot of folks sh!tting themselves right now.
