O come pagare un killer perchč non uccida: si fa aumentare il prezzo e si genera una specie di asta.
Ma quel che mi sconcerta di pių č un altro aspetto. Posto che normalmente questi soggetti non sono propriamente rispettosi della legge e delle condizioni contrattuali, chi assicura che le stesse informazioni non vengano comunque vendute a pių acquirenti?

Facebook has been able to alert tens of millions of users that their
passwords needed changing because they weren't strong enough.
