That's obviously the case, which just proves that neither party intended to actually reimburse consumers for our breached data, and the effort to mitigate identity theft.
The amount of money they set aside only allows for 248,000 people to claim the $125 compensation. That is roughly 0.2% of the total 147 million. Seems a bit off to me, but then again I am not familiar with these kinds of things.
What’s more likely: that they didn’t realize that more than 0.1% of the 150 million people affected might sign up for this, or that they don’t give a shit?
This all sounds terrible but there are going to be zero consequences.
