I can't help but remember when the US Postal Service raided a company and evaluated its mail, and then unilaterally fined that company for sending letters by FedEx which, as they weren't answered for several days, the finers claimed could have been sent by first class mail instead.
There's a law against that now. They picked a bad target: Equifax.
For those who don't know, Equifax is one of the three US companies that hold everyone's credit rating in their hands. I can just imagine the phone calls to Congress the next day.
But not everyone is so stupid as to raid Equifax, and we readers don't have Congressmen's credit ratings by the short 'n' curlies. So don't be too sure what the powers that be won't do.
