Oh my goodness, the pool is poluted and our information is at risk. What are we going to do stop swimming or clean up the pool? The system is corrupted so there is little that a swimsuit will do to protect you. The government is corrupting the pool and people will steal your information as long as we have "Secret Evidence." What can we do? The system must create standard business practices that make stealing information not worth the time or trouble. If someone takes your address and phone number to create a new billing address make it a requirement of the shipper to verify the address is correct. If someone steals your banking information, make it a requirement to verify unusual activity. Your social security number is practically useless because there's nothing in that account. A simple verification step nulifies all the corruption and pollutants in the river. When technology moves faster than the law some criminals will get away with breaking the law if the government wants them to get away with it. Fear of swimming limits the technology and permits the government to break the law too. Trust and verify applies to the Internet also. We can't trust because we don't verify the information is correct. That's no way anybody should be permitted to do business.
