They waiting 2 years to let their customer know…2 YEARS. Any small business or individual would be instantly jailed. Demand the same

Corporations are people… except when those people need to go to jail.

It actually seems like it was three months. From a different article

The company wrote that it first learned of the incident in April, but the U.S. Justice Department determined in May and again in June that “a delay in providing public disclosure was warranted” until now.

Either way, we deserve a full answer on that delay

This appears to be related to the same Snowflake breach that compromised Ticketmaster. I wouldn’t be surprised to hear about more companies impacted by this.

Same company that leaked my ssn to the dark web in a data breach.

Anything anyone else is doing for you is not protected.

That’s pretty much the lesson.

I’m sure $3.50 eventual settlement cheque you’ll receive will be worth it.
