This case of an intraperitoneal zucchini is unusual, and does raise questions as to how hard one has to push a blunt vegetable to perforate the rectum.

Joining this will prevent you from suing Equifax in the future if your stolen data is ever used for identity theft.

Why settle for $125 or whatever, when I can just sue Equifax on my own if/when someone uses my stolen info to take out loans and mortgages in my name/SSN?

I'd rather get restitution for the full actual damages that arise rather than settling for a trifle and being hosed over and left on my own.

BREAKING

From one of my fraud accounts

XKCD Webcomic User Forums
Date of Incident: July 1, 2019
Date Made Public: September 1, 2019
Records Affected: Estimated 560,000
Data Compromised: Hackers have reportedly breached the user forums of popular webcomic XKCD. Exposed information may have included usernames, email addresses, salted and hashed passwords, as well as some IP addresses from the time of registration. XKCD states that it has taken the forums offline until it can ensure that they are secure. The organization also posted a message warning users to change their XKCD passwords, as well as any similar passwords they use for other accounts.

Oh no!

As ThreatPost explained, phpBB and other DIY platforms are a popular choice for fan forums within the gaming community and are often vulnerable to attacks due to being poorly maintained. Still, it's unclear whether XKCD's forum was running an older version of phpBB. Engadget has reached out to XKCD for comment, and will update if we hear back.

Yea, it sucks that the victims get jack and the lawyers make bank.

Class actions like this are one of the few (sorta) functioning mechanisms for slapping these companies when they gently caress everyone over, and the only enticement to get the law-firms involved is their huge cut of a giant payout or settlement.

Outside of ultra wealthy billionaires, no one in America has the limitless resources to take on Equifax in court, so may as well go with the $8.65 because it's better than $0.

i guess i could just bump this thread rather than making a new one. another security breach, another settlement. YAHOO

https://yahoodatabreachsettlement.com/

quote:

Important information – review this website and contents carefully:

A Class Action Settlement has been proposed in litigation against Yahoo! Inc. (“Yahoo”) and Aabaco Small Business, LLC (together, called “Defendants” in this notice), relating to data breaches (malicious actors got into system and personal data was taken) occurring in 2013 through 2016, as well as to data security intrusions (malicious actors got into system but no data appears to have been taken) occurring from, at least, January to April 2012 (collectively the “Data Breaches”). If you received a notice about the Data Breaches, or if you had a Yahoo account at any time between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2016 and are a resident of the United States or Israel, you are a “Settlement Class Member.”

Under the terms of the Settlement, Yahoo has enhanced, or, through its successor in interest, Oath Holdings Inc. (“Oath”), continues to enhance its business practices that will improve the security of its users’ personal information stored on its databases. Defendants will also pay for a Settlement Fund of $117,500,000. The Settlement Fund will provide a minimum of two years of Credit Monitoring Services to protect Settlement Class Members from future harm, or an alternative cash payment for those who verify they already have credit monitoring or identity protection. The Settlement Fund will also provide cash payments to those who have demonstrated out-of-pocket losses, including loss of time, as well as payments to Yahoo users who paid for advertisement free or premium Yahoo Mail services and those who paid for Aabaco Small Business services, which included business email services. The Settlement Fund will also pay the costs of notice and the settlement administration; court-approved attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses; and Service Awards for named Plaintiffs. In exchange, Settlement Class Members will release any and all claims they may have against Defendants regarding the Data Breaches.

Settlement Class Members May Act Now To Protect Themselves From Possible Harm Resulting From The Data Breach

Settlement Class Members are encouraged to submit a claim to receive a minimum of two years of future Credit Monitoring Services. If you already have Credit Monitoring Services, you may still sign up for this additional protection. Alternatively, if you verify that you already have a credit monitoring service that you will keep for at least one year, you may submit a claim for a cash payment of $100.00 instead of receiving Credit Monitoring Services through the Settlement. Payment for such a claim may be less than $100.00 or more (up to $358.80) depending on how many Settlement Class Members participate in the Settlement.

You may additionally provide documentation or proof to receive reimbursement of up to $25,000.00 in out-of-pocket losses, including lost time, that you believe you suffered or are suffering because of the Data Breaches. As to documented lost time, you can receive payment for up to fifteen hours of time at an hourly rate of $25.00 per hour or unpaid time off work at your actual hourly rate, whichever is greater. If your lost time is not documented, you can receive payment for up to five hours at that same rate.

If approved, the proposed Settlement will resolve the litigation entitled In re: Yahoo! Inc. Customer Data Security Breach Litigation, Case No. 16-md-02752-LHK (N.D. Cal.), before Judge Lucy H. Koh in the Northern District of California, and Yahoo! Inc. Private Information Disclosure Cases, JCCP No. 4895, before Judge Glenda Sanders in the Orange County Superior Court. The Court must decide whether to finally approve the Settlement. No Credit Monitoring Services will be provided, and no payments will be made until the Settlement becomes final. The class action settlement approval process may take more than one year.

Things that get people's hopes up are necessary and good, because it's how radicalization happens to normal people.

Yay, we worked together for 3 years and finally passed a straw ban! We believed in each other, came together, and did it! The system works! Time to watch the results happen. Wait, what's this, during those 3 years the GOP rolled back regulations on nearly all other forms of pollution? Oh what's this, they just rolled back our straw ban while we were looking at that? gently caress this, *Googles Bernie, supports him in 2016* Oh huh, his own party ratfucked him and there's really just one party, the party of war and corporate money? *Googles Antifa and Bernie 2020*
