Epsilon Hack
I have no idea why the Epsilon hack is getting so much press.
Yes, millions of names and e-mail addresses might have been stolen. Yes, other customer information might have been stolen, too. Yes, this personal information could be used to create more personalized and better targeted phishing attacks.
So what? These sorts of breaches happen all the time, and even more personal information is stolen.
I get that over 50 companies were affected, and some of them are big names. But the hack of the century? Hardly.

On another hand, I would like to know (just out of curiosity) what hack would Bruce classify as the “Hack of the Century”?
(If any such hack exists, that is)
