I encourage you check out the video where I explain how data breaches impact you here: https://youtu.be/ek7awOTm5vk

Some ways to protect yourself from this one:
  • Freeze your credit
  • Change and randomize your passwords
  • Consider email aliases
Be kind and patient with each other!

It got even worse, all that data was released in the dark web for free, which is so much worse. My new advice:

OH MY GOD PLEASE FREEZE YOUR CREDIT

I think this should be considered a server reset, and everyone should start over with their debts set to 0. Just sayin :lol:
