Ask HN: Is anyone else trying to opt out of Equifax WorkNumber?

On the heels of yesterday's bombshell:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33198708

First thing this morning I emailed [email protected] to request a data freeze as outline at:

https://employees.theworknumber.com/employee-data-freeze/

But I've not yet heard anything back.

This is only the initial first step in a process with unknown hoops to jump through, but first I must get the form to reply and submit the freeze request.

If I don't hear back by tomorrow morning I'll mail in the form, but my god this is frustrating to have to opt out of something I never consented to in the first place.

Parasites.
