3 Weeks Later, Equifax Makes a Peace Offering - The New York Times

Final paragraph below; also see Equifax CEO Richard Smith Who Oversaw Breach to Collect $90 Million (Fortune), which notes "The CEO of Equifax is retiring from the credit reporting bureau with a pay day worth as much as $90 million—or roughly 63 cents for every customer whose data was potentially exposed in its recent security breach."

"I’m inclined to accept Equifax’s apology, assuming the data breach doesn’t turn out to be an inside job. But the company has shown no ability to handle the most basic of technological tasks under pressure these last few weeks. So I see no reason to believe that the rollout of this new iteration of its lock will work very well. I’m going to keep my freeze there until further notice and feel good about any additional dollars it cannot make off my name."
