@TransUnion @AskTU Not sure how you can help? We've confirmed multiple times with @TransUnion that criminals can easily remove freezes, fraud alerts, and change PINs without any notification or enhanced authentication. If you have a different answer, we're anxious to hear more. @FTC

[John Ternent @jaternent]

PSA: A @TransUnion credit freeze is worthless. Identity thieves who have your information can call them, change your PIN, and lift your freeze by answering questions from your credit report, which they have. How is this company trusted with all our information?

@meetnaren Thanks for posting your plotly Sankey example on Kaggle, could not get it to work and your use of the indexes got me over the hump!

Nice introduction to constrained optimization, definitely a tool that deserves a place in the analytics belt! I was unaware of the python interface, which is super exciting too! https://t.co/7cNAnuqPJN https://t.co/SzZvU3TqeI

@askRegions Hardly an "impression" when it's substantiated by multiple first-hand instances of security and privacy failures. No need to contact me, my accounts are closed, just want others to avoid the same mistake.

[John Ternent @jaternent]

@askRegions #RegionsBank ludicrously vulnerable to social engineering attacks on their customer call center and only care about it when you remove the money. Time to switch banks, mattresses much safer than them.

Thanked by @JetBlue for switching seats today. Thanked them back for not beating the crap out of me and throwing me off the plane.
