Hope this isn't a repeated submission. Funny how they're trying to deflect blame after they tried to change the EULA post breach.

If your credit card information gets stolen because someone stole it from a website you bought something off of, is that your fault?

Bad analogy. The only people who had their information exposed are people who reused passwords and people who decided to make their info semi-public. It's more like deciding to tell all your cousins and 2nd cousins your credit card info and one of them leaked it.

And then trying to hold the card issuer liable rather than your cousin...
