Is anyone else trying to opt out of Equifax WorkNumber?

On the heels of yesterday’s bombshell: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33198708 First thing this morning I emailed TWNFreeze@equifax.com to request a data freeze as outline at: https://employees.theworknumber.com/employee-data-freeze/ But I’ve not yet heard anything back. This is only the initial first step in a process with unknown hoops to jump through, but first I must get the form to reply and submit the freeze request. If I don’t hear back by tomorrow morning I’ll mail in the form, but my god this is frustrating to have to opt out of something I never consented to in the first place. Parasites.
