In recent weeks, I have almost entirely given up on talk radio in favor of using alternative media. One of the nicest things about this is that I no longer get beaten over the head every few minutes by LifeLock commercials.
LOL.
I highly doubt that it’s a bug, it smells more like a feature to me.
Who protects from lifelock?
It’s kinda like the safety spout on my gas can caused me to spill gas on my lawn mower exhaust, causing a fire.
Oh, I’m sure Rush will address this today in his usual 10 minute infomercial.
... Not.
The reality is that banks - and credit card companies, and Departments of Motor Vehicles nationwide - are in the identity business.It bothered me a little when a bank employee was apologetic about the hoops I had to jump through to get access to my safe deposit box. I wasn’t bothered by the ID check, I was more bothered that she would be bothered about it. I don’t want it to be easy for anyone else to get into my safe deposit box.
The reason that I’m not in LifeLock is that I blanch at the thought of telling the strangers who work for them absolutely everything they would need to know to rip me off. The news in this article is unfortunate - but, unfortunately, a little too close to inevitable to suit me.
It seems like a bank would be the institution - local, one at which I can personally present - which should be the interface between me and an institution like LifeLock. It needs to present a human face, on the one hand, and OTOH it needs to be nationwide and even worldwide, perhaps - and reliably competent and secure.
You know, like Hillary’s bathroom server! </sarcasm>
Rush and LifeLock, Levin and GoldLine, Hannity and Liberty gun safes.. when will the barrage stop? ;_)
It was only a matter of time before Life-Lock became a victim albeit by it’s own hand and not a hack.
Lifelock is known for hiring foreign developers, who are also known as the dumbest developers.
Its a smart service to sell but a bit overpriced. I canceled mine years ago and shop smart and use some common sense. But there are times things happen.
