The IRS will pay Equifax $7.25 million to verify taxpayer identities and help prevent fraud under a no-bid contract issued last week, even as lawmakers lash the embattled company about a massive security breach that exposed personal information of as many as 145.5 million Americans.

Private sector will take care of you, sleep well.

EQUI-FUCKING-FAX?

WTF!!

All I can do is laugh.

There are times lately, when I wish we weren't so civilized. Drawing and quartering comes to mind when I think about what should happen to all executives and IT personnel involved with the breach. If they made a law that companies are responsible for all costs incurred to individuals who have had their data released/breached, things would get corrected very quickly. As it is now, it's just the cost of doing business. Like drug dealers, loose a shipment here and there.

Hope you idiots are lovin' the MAGA

no-bid contract

it should have been open to bidding. i bet the hackers could have done it for less, they already have the database.

 

[sandorski]

The hackers are probably more reliable.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

Anyone tired of winning yet?

 

[Indus]

Hey conservterrorists are poor and uneducated and ripe for scamming.

So much winning ripping off the base.

Woohoo!!!!

Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch.

I'm glad that I have a freeze on my credit right now. Geez we just bungled 149m credit records but we promise to be nice with all of their tax records. Next they'll award our nuclear arsenal upgrade to NK, China and Iran. Team Trump - MAGA.

This has to be the most batsh!t crazy administration in human history.

 

[HomerJS]

Conservatives are stupid and have selective memories. Can't remember major stories a few weeks old but just name drop Lois Lerner and watch them recite chapter and verse.

 

[dawp]

it's been pre-hacked, we're good to go!!


anyone remember the scene fro the world according to garp where the plane flys into the home and he decides to by the house on the spot because it's been "pre-disastered"? same thing.

My puts went from up 350% to now down to 130%. I hate this company so much... but it seems the share price is locked in through various schemes. Wells Fargo, the shadiest bank in existence, upgraded them and then the Trump administration comes in to help out. What other incredibly shady interests can come and help out their buddy Equifax? If only Lehman Brothers was still around, they could upgrade too.

drain that fucking swamp!

 

[brycejones]

drain that fucking swamp!

You missed it, by drain the swamp he really meant fill the swamp with raw sewage. Because as you replace the water with something else you're draining it right? It isn't Trump's fault he is very good with words. Who know presidenting could be so hard? NO ONE KNEW, until he figured it out.

 

[dainthomas]

I can't handle this much winning.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

I can't handle this much winning.

Low energy loser...

No conservative is capable of understanding how fucked up this is.

he has the best words.

People who make honest mistakes are most likely to be trusted not to repeat them.

Then again, people who are negligent are most likely to be negligent again.

So I'm gonna go with the "what the every living fuck" crowd.

 

[WHAMPOM]

From swamp to toxic waste dump, my, my, do conservatives consider this an improvement?

 

[MomentsofSanity]

Clearly this is all the fault of Obama holdovers. Deep state strikes again.....

I like the Derp State better
