Recent comments by Orson Swindle, a commissioner of the Federal Trade Commission are no exception to this rule. InternetNews.com reports part of his comments as follows: "While politicians raise hell about identity theft, what we’re really talking about is the failure to protect valuable currency," Swindle said.
"Corporate boards better start paying attention, because they haven’t been." Be forewarned – additional scrutiny, regulation and "hell" are on the way.
