I think if class-actions come up in the future they have a pretty good case. It seems to me there's a good chance of getting the ball rolling on this stuff - the world is becoming much more aware of the risks associated with online privacy.

Really, the banking industry should be some of the most aware. They lose millions, maybe billions, to fraud and identity theft. The fact they engage with it and enable it demonstrates how strong the suits are and how little they understand.

Want to stop identity theft? Stop leaking personal data to hundreds of third parties. We don't know if they're running their shitty analytics on a Raspberry Pi taped under someone's cubicle. There's a reason we keep having data breaches.
