I don't want credit monitoring from these companies. The companies that expose all our data are the same companies trying to sell us a service to protect that data. If they get something wrong or somebody
"steals our identity", we're responsible for correcting it. What a racket. It seems this "industry" externalizes all the costs to people whose information it collects and then exposes. They win no matter what happens.

I want them to pay for credit freezes. (I want them to do some other things too, but it wouldn't be polite to express those things aloud.)

Here's a link to Equifax's own page on the matter (in case it is useful): https://www.equifaxsecurity2017.com/
