Technology

Let me guess: they're really sorry.

I cannot fathom why such data breaches aren't prosecuted as crimes of the company as well as the thieves.

This doesn't happen because the hackers struck like a force of nature, but because the servers aren't kept secure constantly. Because that would be more expensive.

It's like a car company getting sued for making insecure cars. It's not hard to wrap your head around.

The problem will get worse until consumer protection and privacy are priorities. It will only get worse yet with the growth of identity verification enforcement across technologies.

Cybersecurity becomes a joke for more and more organizations.
