No noticeable consequences for Monster.com breach -- This stuff drives me crazy!!!!!

« Why they do it: RBS Leak Net $9Mill | Main | Hacker fall-out from Israeli-Palestinian conflict »

So, apparently there have been little if any repercussions for the recent Monster.com breach. Society at large is starting to suffer from "security breach" a fatigue and customers are being told to believe breaches don't matter if SSNs aren't exposed. What will it take to finally get these companies to be accountable for AVOIDABLE losses?

This quote in particular sums it up: "And yet Monster might suffer little fallout - because the overall state of computer security is so bad anyway."

That kind of sentiment wouldn't be acceptable in any other industry. Oy!
