how does limiting liability under the Fair Credit Reporting Act have anything to do with liability for allowing your servers to be hacked?
Rephrase your question like I'm very retarded.

Stupidity is contagious there it seems.

Someone from Equifax sent people looks for answers to a spoof site.

The bill itself will limit people suing Equifax because of the hacked/breached.

Let's get an amicus brief together on the FCRA angled towards Justice Gorsuch.

Equifax is back in the news. This time WSJ (and others) are reporting that even more info could've been stolen during the hack:



https://www.wsj.com/articles/equifax-ha ... 1518191370

It's also that even passport numbers were also stolen and that they still don't know who hacked Equifax, yet:
The credit reporting bureau admitted that a far more extensive assortment of data was “accessed” by hackers last year than previously acknowledged — but insisted not all of that info on 145.5 million Americans was actually stolen, according to a Jan. 2 letter it sent to Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

The company’s list of “accessed” data, obtained by The Post, includes:

passport numbers
Social Security numbers
 first, last, and middle names and suffixes
gender
home addresses and phone numbers
driver’s license numbers, including the date the license was issued and the state issuing them
 date of birth
credit card numbers, their expiration date and “CV2” security numbers
 tax ID numbers
email addresses
Canadian customers also had their Social Insurance Numbers taken, according to the letter.

Perhaps the most sensitive new piece of data accessed by hackers in the 2017 cyberattack on Equifax is the passport numbers — but the company is insisting no passport numbers were stolen.

Don't need a reason to blame minorities. It's their fault anyway.
