Finally someone agrees - You are not in control of your Digital Data

According to the article:- 

Each time there's a high-profile data breach, security experts exhort the same best practices: Create unique logins for every service you use, use complex passwords, vigilantly comb your credit card statements for anomalies. The advice is sound. Unfortunately, it obscures the fact that the safety of your personal information is ultimately in the hands of companies you share it with.

Be discriminating about where you share sensitive information, and exactly which information you trust with third parties. If a company shows a lack of regard for protecting your data, move on.
