This reminds me of TAP Portugal Airlines data breach of 6 million people personal data, without ever contacting and/or providing support to affected costumers.

Interestingly, while European regulations are supposed to enhance companies' responses to such incidents, it was an American company that offered better assistance. They provided two years of identity monitoring and maintained an open line of communication for those impacted.

> Customers were prompted to reset their password though the store assured customers this was only for "extra peace of mind."

Not prompted. Forced.

This surely gave extra peace to only the dimmest minds.
