People’s Gas Breach not Infinite

According to the latest reports from the Chicago-area, a contractor who breached an energy company was unable to steal infinity.

It’s still bad news for the “finite” number of records he did access.

Peoples Gas and sister utility North Shore Gas have notified an undisclosed number of customers of the possible theft and potential use of personal information about them by a contract worker.

[…]

They said, though, that the number is “finite and very small.” The companies said they had no information to indicate that the number of customers affected by the possible identity theft would grow.

The contracted employee has been fired and is “subject to criminal investigation and prosecution,” the companies said.

Never mind the X-men. A cartoon comes to mind with an evil character who has the amazing ability to steal an infinite amount of data. Oh no! It’s…it’s…SAN Man! Egress man?
