      We’re so dependent on computer and internet that it is almost impossible to keep your data secure from criminals.

      How many Reddit users have suffered data breach that forced you to freeze your credit, notify the three credit reporting agencies, start receiving spams e-mails and texts that try to make you click the fake link?

      Every time I receive suspicious e-mail, I click the senders e-mail address and more often than not, it will not be legit.

      I’m at the point where I might as well just post my SSN here because y’all probably know it already…

      Sure, I’ll take another two years of free identity protection because another company had a data leak. Don’t think I’ve paid for the better part of ten years now.

      Do they not encrypt or are they really just selling our information and calling it a data breach?

      So this is specifically people who got a line of credit/loan through PayPal in the past 6 months.

      The best legislators have to offer is requiring everyone to identify themselves using their real world identities before they’re allowed on the internet or use particular services.

      As we can see, it’s going great… for the criminals plus governments wanting to de-anonymise the internet ‚for the children‘.

      Until these companies suffer heavy penalties for breaches like this nothing is going to change.

      Security is expensive and they have no motivation to protect our data.

      DOGE already took everyone’s Social Security anyways.

      Now watch them implement digital ID by making everyone get another one through an app or some shit

      My children, who barely survived childbirth after a complicated pregnancy, have no records of their hospital stay, their birth and complications etc. Because the hospital got hit by ransomware…

      I wonder which big four auditor they used and which cybersecurity insurance provider they had

      I bet the hackers are getting real tired of my SSN showing up in their breaches. I ain’t got shit to give.

      Pay a bill while you’re at it, leeches!

      Well thank the maker I stopped using PayPal in 2012 and never ever ever looked back.

      Yeah, that’s just the tip of the iceberg for this company. Multiple PX issues last year. New CEO in March is incentivized to sell parts of company. They’ve been going through silent layoffs and are in a 2 year RIF plan.
