Heck, the population of the whole of Australia is only just over 23 million.

Stolen - passwords, names, email address, home addresses, phone numbers, birth dates and other personal information.

This is really serious stuff.

Have you received the promised email from eBay?

In Canada, we've been sent no notification. I don't think it's possible that eBay.com was breached, but eBay.ca wasn't - there is too much cross traffic between the sites.

We need laws to force e-retailers to inform consumers, immediately and completely, about stolen information, and its possible implications. I don't buy the, "it just lets hackers know what works" excuse.
