I'm 100% not okay with stealing and ransoming people's personal information, but this makes me want to be 99% not okay with it.
I am 100% ok with ransoming companies with poor security.
We balance each other out. I’ll never feel sorry for a corporation and ticket master are one of the worst.
it's not the company that suffers though, everyone already has their personal data ...
That’s inevitable at this point anyway. If you’re that concerned then change what you can every time there is a breach.
your comment implies we already aren't doing that.
do not project your apathy toward your own privacy onto the rest of us.
I change all the time.
I am apathetic towards a lot of things, but my privacy isn’t one.
You know this affected a bunch of individual humans, many of whom skipped meals and other things, to buy an overpriced ticket for a moment of brightness in a life of drudgery?
Fuck hospitals and end users then? The party losing the most here is certainly not ticketmaster
Yeah the hackers can get fucked. But Ticketmaster can go get fucked more.
