    I didn’t see it as an attack. I saw it as very poor communication. “Also” would have worked way better as it would have been a “yes, and” instead of a literal “but.” I’m all about charitable readings. That’s why I didn’t attack them but pointed out their choice in wording. It was, as pointed out, snarky, not defensive.

      At&t lost a bunch of people’s SSNs

      Why do they even have SSNs to lose?

      To check for terrorism

      (Also/but) that doesn’t mean they need to store it.

      Be honest. Which word actually makes sense?

        Unless extra words are added to show they are disagreeing with the practice instead of my comment then “also” is the best choice.
