Just as it says in the title. All these companies offering ‘privacy’ and ‘security’ services when they can’t even keep their own shit secure. At the end of the day, the only chance we have at keeping private and secure is by handling our own data and avoiding all these companies entirely, and hope they all eventually disappear in bankruptcy hell.

Funny how this company is also a ‘sponsor’ for Have I Been Pwned, yet they are evidently just using that to market themselves to privacy conscious people by having their brand on the site.

These companies never cease to amaze me, and this causes me to trust Have I Been Pwned a bit less in terms of their marketed philosophy vs what they actually are.

I’m just ranting here, because I’m getting increasingly tired of all this shit. Sorry for that.

    The security is monitoring your public records. Could you link to any of their services that aren’t about public records like titles, credit cards, credit ratings? Because that’s all I saw on their website.

    There’s another company named aura that appears to be completely unrelated that provides security services in Malaysia- like physical guards for your business.

    I get the idea of mocking security companies that get hacked. But this is a bad example. All their data was already public.

    It would be like being mad at Lemmy because your username jjlinux and all your posts got “hacked” and posted to the Internet.
