Equifax got hacked. Nearly 150 million people's data stolen. And the executives' first move was to quietly sell their shares. 🤦
This is The Facepalm Files.

The worst part of Equifax is you have no say in the matter. No signing up for the "service", no opt-in. Just "We're gonna track all of your finances, sell your data to anybody willing to pay for it, and leave it on this un-secure computer in the corner over here for somebody to steal." Absolute dogshit corp. Sure you can "freeze" your credit report, but it doesn't stop the data collection.
