So one way you can think about it is this. The people who traded thier info for the tv can't sell thier info for anywhere near that value. So they got a good deal. The reality is that all our info is already out there some where anyway. So these breaches mean very little anymore. It's getting to the point that an contract agreed to where identity is verified by personal info will be easy to challenge in court.
