“How is EQUIFAX not liable for the outcome of this data loss?”
They are but you’ll get crumbs after the attorneys take their $$Millions.
This breach should have been the end of Equifax. Oh by the way their Chief Security Officer was a music major.
No they aren’t...
They have ZERO criminal responsibility for any of this... Civilly you may have a case, but they have ZERO criminal responsibility for mishandling your data... NONE.
Correction: this should be the end of all of the credit “bureaus”. fixed it
