So I got a notice from Ticketmaster that my identity was accessed by an intruder and my name, contact info and /encrypted/ payment info was compromised. These notices are more and more common. Why aren’t companies accountable for damages when they fail to protect all the myriad data they collect on people without consent? I never asked them to store these things…

    We take the protection of your personal information very seriously

    Fuck, I loathe this corporate bullshit phrase. Obviously you didn’t take it serious enough, now did you? For some reason this phrase really grinds my gears. Fair enough that you had a data breach and so on, but don’t brush off the issue like this…

      It’s the fucking robotic phrasing that doesn’t mean anything. It’s like when you read an article about some crazy bad thing a company did and the company is asked to make a statement, it’s always “we follow all applicable laws” or some version of “we didn’t do it.”
