Anyone think this might be to keep the Republican controlled House from doing their much more public investigation?

Question for the lawyers:
Apparently the internet is having a field day with my personal and medical info. In the last 3 months, I have letters from 2 hospitals and my prescription provider that all medical and personal info has been compromised thru their systems. I recently got a check from yahoo for almost $400 and didn't even know I was in the class action. I have double passwords on all my accts so haven't seen any attempts to hack me yet. So I guess my question is whether or not to pursue any of these class actions.?
Sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, there are only two types of people, people whose personal information has been leaked on the internet, and people who aren't aware that their personal information has been leaked on the internet. Once the equifax breach happened, it was all over.
So how to protect yourself. 2 factor authentication a good first step. You may want to look into a password manager like OnePass. Further, 2 factor only works if both factors are protected, so you should avoid using your cell phone number in public listings or otherwise posting it online. If someone spoofs your phone number they could easily get around your 2FA.
Second, you want to make sure you have some sort of credit monitoring in place. You can pull your credit report (not the score) for free once a year at www.annualcreditreport.com to make sure there is nothing suspicious. You should also have credit monitoring that alerts you if something changes. Most credit cards now offer this as a free add-on, but you could also use something like creditkarma.com to be alerted if something pops up on your credit.
If you want to be super careful, you are able to freeze your credit by contacting each of the credit bureaus. However, this can be annoying as you have to unfreeze each time you need to apply for new credit (and a huge pain in the ass if you forget your password to unfreeze it). Typically, being vigilant and catching it early should be enough.
As far as pursuing a class action, you can reach out to an attorney to see if they are looking for a class rep, but more likely than not they already have one or the case has already been started. If a class action has been filed, you have the option to opt out of the class to pursue your claim individually. The decision to do that is going to depend on how much free time you have to mess around in court and whether or not an attorney would take it on contingency or not (most likely will not unless you can show significant damage or a unique fact outside of the already pending class). Likely, you will just want to join the class and sit back and wait a few years until your tiny portion of the settlement arrives in the mail.
Thanks. Great info. I figured it would years with miniscule results. I've had Credit Karma for years. Good site.
Dean Phillips seems like a decent democratic candidate for ‘24 that id like to see and hear more about. That probably means he doesn’t have a chance in hell to get the nomination.
Yawn...
Anyway, to some real news. From Bribery Biden today:
2. We're laser-focused on getting aid to survivors, including Critical Needs Assistance: a one-time $700 payment per household offering relief during an unimaginably difficult time.
Are you kidding me? How many billions has this callous piece of shit given to Ukraine?

Has Biden visited Maui yet? No.
Has he visited East Palestine yet? No.
Has he found any time in between his multiple beach trips to visit Ukraine? You bet your ass he has!
