My name and phone number has been "stolen" so many fucking times why should I care?
It's not like Advanced Auto has my health data or something that I might give a fuck about.
no, but someone else might have that data and they correlate your address and other information with it. It's simply another attack vector.
Yep, I am well aware of that. Too bad the data has been out there so long that it really is pointless to care at this point. It is like this for damn near everyone that has ever worked for a major company or the government or ever ordered anything online.
This is life now. Privacy died back in the 90's at best. Not like I am willing to just put things out everywhere but for the most part, the majority of info is easily looked up on everyone in the US if you are willing to pay ~15-25$ and it takes about 20 minutes.
