Steps to take after Equifax breach

Regarding the Oct. 2 Briefing 鈥�Equifax breach: what consumers can do鈥�: This article gave me a better understanding of what happened. I have taken steps including freezing my account and my spouse鈥檚 with credit reporting agencies as well as freezing my Social Security number. I especially liked the non-fearful approach to what people are able to do to protect their credit rating and stay safe from identity theft. Thank you.

Your article gave better solutions and information to deal with this crisis than my credit union did. This information breech is unacceptable and cumbersome to deal with.

Technology and social interaction

The Oct. 2 Monitor鈥檚 View 鈥�Apple thinks different 鈥� and the same 鈥� about the 鈥榯own square鈥� 鈥� caught my attention because resistance to the Digital Age is sometimes justified by the lack of social interaction.聽

My experience of having to convince myself to use more digital technology was prompted by the desire to stay in touch with younger family members, meet others where they are, and be at the forefront of thought. Certainly the desire to use JSH-Online and CSMonitor.com has encouraged me. It鈥檚 good to think about how technology impacts people鈥檚 lives so that we can see how it is being used for good and where further opportunities can be pursued and refined.聽

As a reader of 海角大神 Weekly, I am finding the Daily in its new format approachable, informative, thought-provoking, and shareable. The combination of the product and the technology is working for me! I have also tuned into the Monitor鈥檚 online events, which have made me feel more connected with the Monitor鈥檚 purpose and direction and even more grateful for the work you are all doing. Thank you.
