Just wow. If you enter "Test" and "123456" on Equifax's hack checker page, it says your data has been breached.pic.twitter.com/cTjTs7Frjv

Here's the story. We tested Equifax's data breach checker — and it's basically useless. http://zd.net/2vLq6LT pic.twitter.com/8Cvb5u7f75

You're an alleged "security editor" and it didn't occur to you that they simply forgot to remove their test account? Wow indeed.

#EquifaxDataBreach gives me peace of mind -

So... It is a scam just like the whole credit industry, right?
-
For that right. Divide $70 billion lawsuit by "143 million" people equals about $50 - legal fees equals nothing. My info is worth ~$20

$70 billion of legal fees?
-
$70 billion lawsuit filed. "143 million" people affected. That's about $50 http://bucks.Legal fees in class action about 40%=peanuts
-
That math isn't math
-
As I said b4, math was off by 10x. Definitely much worse offense than a company supposed to keep your info safe and...well not doing it.
