The Target compromise wasn't a minor pain for everyone. A friend's bank reissued her credit card. Which caused a payment she had made to Time Warner fail. She was also in the middle of moving, which caused even more headache and a potential hit on her credit for late payment, because apparently Time Warner doesn't even attempt to notify you if your payment fails.

I'd put the blame entirely on Time Warner for that one. The Target breach is entirely incidental to the store. The same thing would have happened if the card had expired naturally, or been closed for other reasons.
