While I mostly agree I think they took way too long to offer the consumers a free year of credit monitoring. They didn't come out and offer that until last week after it was released that 70 million consumers were involved in the breach.
As consumers this is an unfortunate risk we take when using our cards and giving our personal information at any retailer. This is NOT the first consumer breach nor will it be the last. It is a sad sad truth. I feel Target is doing what the should to rectify the situation and make good to their customers who were affected.
This event hasn't altered my perception of Target enough to quit shopping there as of yet. However, it does weigh on my mind when I visit the stores and if they have future breaches It will likely push me away as a consumer.
