    Someone should contact the judge who approved the class action settlement and let him or her know Equifax is putting up barriers to collect the settlement and the company should be held in contempt, with consumers allowed to opt out of the class and sue individually to collect.

    Many victims of Equifax’s cheap and negligent security practices resulting in a huge data breach already are giving up on getting paid and will likely not go back.

    Problems with consumers getting this small amount owed as class members or onorous data collection requirement amounts from a company shown to be terrible with cybersecurity should result in severe consequences or else it shows the judge doesn’t actually care about the class members and is doing a bad job protecting them. Of course, that’s only if the judge becomes aware of the problem.
