We see a clip from that old LifeLock ad where the head of
the company puts his social security number on a truck and let everyone see it,
and the announcer says: “Remember that? LifeLock tried to show how good their credit
monitoring service is by exposing only one person’s social security number.
Well, we’re so sure our credit monitoring service is the best, we’re going to
prove it by exposing 145 million Americans’ social security numbers on the dark
web! Those who chose to get our credit monitoring service will be fully
covered! They’ll be so safe, all the others will wish they had it too! Well,
they should have thought of that before we came up with this idea to show how
well it works! Too late now…!”
(Yes, I watched John Oliver this weekend.)
