Man! They could be facing a hefty fine totalling up to $10,000.00.
Why should they pay for security when there is no real punishment for customer data leaks? They have geographic monopolies, so customers can’t leave. Regulators will do nothing. Courts will do very little.
We need progressive leadership and legislation. Conservatism only benefits billionaires.
Should be a fine of $10,000 per customer whose data was breached. Plus any costs associated from each customer for stolen identities. Plus cost for identity protection services for each customer.
Comcast: we’d go out of business!
Good. Then the government can auction off your infrastructure (really the US’s since we paid for most of it) and the next company won’t fuck around with data.
Oh, and if the company tries to hide data breaches, it’s a $1M fine per customer breached plus 10% yearly gross revenue as a fine, on top of the above.
I’m regularly teased by “Google Fiber is available in your area!” ads. I check sporadically to see if it’s changed, but my neighborhood wasn’t among those wired for it, I guess, so bullshit dumbass Xfinity it is. I literally have no other broadband choice, unless I want to go DSL/satellite.

This is one of those comments that makes me almost miss being able to gild things.
