It seems like a day doesn't pass without a new data breach. Take the iOS debacle back in March, for instance, where it was reported that the iOS X app was sharing crash reports with the platform even if users had opted out. It's a bad look but, with so many of these occurrences popping up, it's easy to become numb to the news.
It doesn't help that it's hard to visualize where we, the individuals, come into the equation. Sure, it's our data being stolen and leaked, but the press often focuses on the business side of things, which can lead to a personal sense of detachment about the consequences of breaches.
