nathaniel 0 #2 June 10, 2006 I have a sneaking feeling that it would be more concise to list the companies that have not placed their customers' and employees' privacy at risk than vice versa. * Cash only hotdog stands * migrant worker-based agriculture * uhm...running out of ideas... Large companies still have very little disincentive to protectexpose data, small companies have effectively none. Appointed gov't employees...hah! You'll generally only hear about it when the DOJ gets involved and / or someone gets caught--if your identity ever gets stolen, it's very hard to pin it to your electric utility vs your bank vs your employer vs everywhere you've ever used your credit card etc...My advice is to do what your parents did; get a job, sir. The bums will always lose. Do you hear me, Lebowski? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
