It is quite obvious that our government doesn’t have a handle on the security / protection of its citizens, when it comes to our personal information.
This morning, the Office of Personal Management announced that somewhere between 5.5 million to 6 million citizens have had their fingerprints stolen.
If you remember, a couple of months ago, federal officials told us that that number was around 1.1 million, when the administration broke the ‘troubling news’ that 22 million people had had their personal Social Security numbers – as well as other “personal / private information” – stolen by international hackers. Supposed international hackers, we have NEVER gotten the official confirmation of that from Washington yet.
The immediate release also indicated that an intra-agency group, comprised of the FBI, Homeland Security and the Defense Department were conducting investigations on the impact of this above situation. Here, let me help…it isn’t, and won’t be, good.
There, I feel much better now…
No, I don’t!
