My email appears in six breaches. Only one of the companies I recognize. I have never done business with the other five.
This pisses me off. Not that the data was stolen -- these things happen. It pisses me off that my data was shared with third parties without my knowledge or consent. And no, a paragraph buried in the basement of a privacy policy does not constitute informed consent.
This system would be more useful if it could report how these companies got my data. I want to know who betrayed me.
It wouldn't be a terrible thing to have privacy legislation that forces companies that sell your data to disclose what information they sold, when, and to whom.
