All you need to know what dates was stolen and which companies used this companies database and what records did these companies access? All I know I have never been hired at any entity that required a background check, by these people. A bigger question is "who are these hackers" and where do they live? Usually when they talk about "leaks", it is USA handing over information to another nation......like China or Israel. or It is the CIA, HLS, FBI doing a sweep of some sort, and they call it a leak. You the CIA 1. Gloria Steinem and book called "Womanism" written by the CIA but was passed off as being written by a College professor ( who just happens to be a black woman...........who fainted when it was found out, and till this day she passes off the lie ). 2. Golf of Tonga incident. Where the flight-recorder was to made as if an attack was carried out in order to put US Troops lives in another pointless war. 3. Blowing up that bridge in South East Asia 4. 9/11 was an inside job because many people ( like Hollywood writers "LoneGunMan" and "Swordfish" ), knew about it in advance. To the insurance taken out on the Twin Towers, and the fact President Clinton did absolutely nothing to secure our national landmarks outside of anti-privacy ( most likely carried out by godless party-brat five-abortions Hillary ) ............ Remember the whole HTTPS thing was because of Snowden, and this was because of PatriotAct, and this was because of the formation of the HLS ( House of Un Americans Part II ), using your privacy against you. HTTPS forces you to pay for that extra S in some webhosts. Which puts your website on a list of vunerable pages. Which is stupid. ............. So remember to do your taxes even if your not employed otherwise somebody might do them for you and have the money to themselves. It is your money.
