We're def at full consumer (& I'd argue, C-suite) "breach fatigue", w/only lawyers caring about extracting legal fees for lawsuits at this point.
Given that the U.S. is about to enter one of its most lawless periods in our history, there will also likely be no consequences moving forward for biz.
Regulators (particularly in jurisdictions with strong privacy protections) may. Without the publication, the company can say "nothing of interest here", with it, they have failed to protect personal information.
For most companies? Not really. There will always be exceptions, mostly orgs in sensitive spaces (ie Ashley Madison), but in general I’d take it over an operations disruption any day of the week.
Luigi Mangione has left me to wonder about how much of a house of cards all of our society actually is. I'm planning to get involved with some volunteering efforts next year after I move and see what moves the needle.
I know that leaks to lead to some things happening sometimes.
like Meta's AI getting leaked lead to the development of an opensource AI model community. thats the biggest thing that comes to mind but often times it seems like its always like, user data and SSNs

Embarrassing emails probably cause more damage than trade secrets.
It’s coupled with intense senses of helplessness.
I got at least 10 breach notifications this year. They all read the same and give a 1-2 year identity monitoring and that’s it
