What drives me nuts about this subject is rarely spoken about.

No single company can properly compensate all of their users for the damages caused by mishandling their personal data.

In fact the damages may even be too great for the government to properly compensate said users.

My government forces a fingerprint on our id cards. I already lost. I can't use my fingerprint anywhere for authentication because it's not mine anymore.

What do you mean? Every time I've been involved in a data leak, I got offered 6 months of identity monitoring. What more could you want?
