    Who would have thought that such a thing could happen? Apart from anyone knowing enough about computers, I mean?

      Having seen the internal workings of a few of these random services, not very safe at all.

      It’s not just shoddy work, or a lax security policy. There is real money to be made by being unethical, and there is nothing to stop many website owners from just selling the data. It’s not like there are consequences to selling it.

      I have a feeling this happens a lot
