The enablers I am referring to are the organizations he broke into to swipe the data. We currently do not have sufficient legal penalties against companies who allow themselves to be violated. There's very little damage done to them when their data is stolen, but the accumulated effect, when the end user data is added together, is humongous. It is the user personal information that suffers the most damage, and companies that house the data are not held accountable when there is a breach in the databases.

What scares me far worse are the ones who haven't been, or perhaps will never be caught, because they are smarter than Gonzales. Albert Gonzales is now famous for being caught.

Have they since been used or were they just stored for selling on later? What happened to the numbers he stole? Have they since been used or were they just stored for selling on later?
