 Got a letter in the mail from a healthcare provider. 

It was directed to “the parents of (our son).” 

It was a letter informing us of a data breach and listed all the compromised information such as name, medical data, social security #, address and etc. 

It’s infuriating to me that we live in a world where so many custodial entities can hold our private information with little to no recourse when they are breached. 

My son is 22 months old and is already compromised.
