 " So until  major dataloss incident, that can not be covered up, flows out
onto the street and people scream for preventive measures, don't hold your
breath. Something like a few billion being scammed by the Russian mob
doesn't even come close here. Hell, the US Housing and Urban Development
(HUD) took a $4 billion loss and nary batted an eyeball, (like how many of
us heard of it?) so if they're not blinking at a few billion, what DOES
constitute as a major incident? " 
 
Hmmm...millions of seniors living on Social Security getting 'hacked' might
constitute a major incident that would bring about change. But, if it
happens under this WH, all it will be seen as is an excuse to scrap Social
Security.
