Kanwal Shared - Equifax lobbying Ontario to slow down credit-reporting legislation - April 19, 2018 at 04:11PM

I totally support the #Bill8 proposed by the #Ontario's Provincial Government, giving more controls to consumers over there #CreditReports and data, which is indeed a necessary step in the wake of defamed cyber leak of data related to the credit records of consumers in #Equifax; no doubt profit mongering erring corporates are opposing it ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bill 8, could require credit-reporting agencies to give consumers free online access to their current credit score at least twice a year and to disclose information in a credit report about any scores that were given to third parties over the past 12 months. It could also require a company to implement a credit freeze when a customer asks for it, possibly helping to stop identity theft in the wake of a data breach. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
