Few people do ... until their identity is stolen from under them, or their privacy is otherwise abused. For the majority of people this is one of those "it only happens to others" sorts of problems, but it is exactly this sort of lack of care that lets companies get away with their lax standards. If their customers cared more the service providers would have to care more.

But nothing much is going to change all that. On other hand, it's not all bad news for those of us that keep minimal sharing standards. If you are the only house on the street with good security then the chances are the thieves or vandals will go next door.
