It's unclear to me why the 3 credit bureaus are free to collect, store, repackage & resell — to creditors, but also back to *me* — sensitive info about my credit habits that I've not authorized or confirmed the veracity of... in fact, *can't* confirm w/o purchasing the "product."https://twitter.com/terronk/status/1155147304409505798 …
This is actually a lot harder and more time-consuming than it looks, as I know personally from dealing with identity theft last year. I had to spend >15 hours scouring my own records for various proof that I had grounds to file an ID theft report + a police report

I did actually end up paying for report access with at least one of the bureaus because they were so unresponsive
