And yet, nobody's going to jail for the breach itself, and Equifax is probably going to avoid any penalties whatsoever. I'd like to see someone held responsible for mishandling the personal financial information of millions of Americans.

Before people go to jail, you must make it a crime. Is it?

Criminal negligence is a thing. I would say that storing that much personal data about people, and not taking the efforts to secure it properly, should count.
