ChoicePoint Cashes In On Its Own Failures

As you'll recall, ChoicePoint sold the personal information of 150,000 people to criminals. Now they've figured out how to make some more money off their mistake: offer to sell reports to those people affected by the security breach so that they can see if their identity has been compromised. Now that's chutzpah.
