Hackers didn’t do anything, at&t failed in one of their few roles, security. It’s your fault for being so pathetically shit. These companies seriously need major punishments or being jailed for life. I’m beyond sick of them all and they no fucks given bribe everything mentality.

Hackers in this case likely means someone who can read a url and increment a number and is curious. Which ought to be everyone over the age of about 7.

Congratulations! Everyone is now a hacker!

Yeah, most effective illegal hackers are working for intelligence agencies or criminal organizations. The legal ones work for companies.

The ones “for the people” are very few.

Companies should be forced to pay thousands of dollars to each customer that gets their data stolen on top of paying for any damages caused by the use of the stolen data. That would put them out of business with a breach this large.

They all get cybersecurity insurance to limit/eliminate that risk and pass it down to someone else. Yeah, we’re at a point where companies have accepted it’ll happen and pay for fucking cybersecurity insurance to protect their capital instead of spending that money on actual security.

Increasing the liability just means the premiums will be passed down to the users, and insurance companies will be rolling in cash. Not like the users would get the settlements anyway.

And of course there’s the whole problem of disposable LLCs, so even a corporate death penalty would do shit, because our society doesn’t give a shit about people, only capital.

Needs to be a percentage of revenue earned to eliminate the possibility of passing the buck. So… It’s not happening any time soon.

  • Someone who has to pay higher rates because PG&E exec pocketed revenue instead of investing in company infrastructure, killing numerous people across multiple incidents.

You’ll take your $3.27 check from the class action lawsuit that settled 4 years ago, and you’ll be happy

Which means AT&T customers can expect spam calls/texts to get much worse in the coming weeks. This breach is basically a gigantic list of known good phone numbers, and there are free tools available to link names/emails to phone numbers.

Company has been laying off people in droves. This stuff will become more common with AT&T.

Change service providers. Sell any stock you might have.
