@da_667 This right here, actually, is the thing that really pisses me off. Having everybody on a system where one set of 9 numbers that is effectively (1) immutable and (2) 100% dictates your financial life so therefore (3) must be kept secret, and yet nothing serious happens to anyone who is trusted to safeguard this information and completely fails in their duty to do so. I get shit happens but when the consequences are that dire for those harmed, maybe the consequences should also be dire for those that allowed and even arguably facilitated that harm after a certain point of negligence?
And then more and more businesses start to treat it as a requirement for doing business while still failing to secure it in any meaningful, reasonable way. It's fuckin' disgusting. The credit reporting bureaus themselves should have lost all credibility themselves the first Two fucking times.
