This will be happening with many companies, over and over until the laws would make it financially damaging for a company to have a breach of personal data (with a statutory penalty, so that the victims don't need to go to a civil court. ) So far, all such breaches, even the one by Equifax, end up with a slap on the wrist at best and no real compensation for the victims.


In most cases, the victims are offered yet a larger exposure of their sensitive information: they are given "free" monitoring for ID theft for a year or two, after which their personal data remains on file with the monitoring company. (And that "monitoring" service is not really responsible for clearing up the mess if your identity is stolen.)


Once 1-2 companies would get almost or completely bankrupted by statutory(!) penalties, the rest will start taking real measures.
