You mean like the Capital One breach where it was an inside job by an ex-AWS employee?

My personal opinion is that privacy has pretty much disappeared. Unless you happen to only use cash transactions so no bank accounts, credit or debit cards, do not connect to utilities such as water, electricity, natural gas, etc., never go online, are not registered with any government agencies, etc.
Pretty much unless you are living a lifestyle that makes the Amish look like technophiles, privacy is pretty much a dead letter.
Fear things will go bad? Optimist.
