I'm going to go way out on a limb and assume no one received anything from them. Before I let my cynicism completely go awry, though, I wanted to check if anyone has received anything from them (cash, help with the impact of the breach, restoration, etc...).

FWIW, my status continues to show as

Your claim was received by the Settlement Administrator and is under review.

Please note, the Court gave final approval to the Settlement and overruled all objections on January 13, 2020. However, some of those that objected to the Settlement have now appealed the Court’s decision to approve the Settlement. By order of the Court, the Settlement cannot become final until all appeals are resolved and there is currently no timeline for the resolution of these appeals. Benefits cannot be distributed until the appeals are resolved and the Settlement becomes effective.

When the appellate court enters a schedule for the appeal, we will update the Settlement website to provide individuals with more guidance as to the timing of a decision. Please periodically check the Settlement website at www.EquifaxBreachSettlement.com for further updates.

Everyone whose data was leaked will have had their data absorbed into public and private databases now being used against them in algorithmic ways that even the people using those algorithms don't understand.

Such is the nature of data persistent today. It persists f.o.r.e.v.e.r. That means there is no forgiveness for the mistakes that even we don't make for ourselves, as well as those we do, but are made for us by others, like Equifax.

You can tell people that a data breach like this will have certain ramifications, and they just don't understand. They don't understand that algorithms run their lives, making decisions about them every single day. Worse is that they don't realize that these algorithms run on risk modeling. These algorithms eat actuarial data for breakfast. They suck data and chop it apart and put it back together to make you into whatever risk model they want. Data is used to quantitize you as a risk model. You're a risk score, be it a credit score or whatever, is affects your life at every possible level, and it's all connected to our fundamental economic systems. I don't mean to sound like the guy from Fight Club, and certainly not half as clever, but these are truths.

We exist in the real world as real living entities, and we exist as multitudes of fake representations, all algorithmically-determined risk models based on data you have neither control of or even understand how it's being applied to you. Your life is owned by the heuristics written by some PhD candidate.

I do sound like that guy from Fight Club.

No money, but I got free credit monitoring for a year after someone used it to steal my identity.
