I see no lesson to be learned from the business perspective. If equifax can recover from their data loss, any company can.

Well equifax didn’t harm any of their customers so their bounce back should be no surprise.

If they didn't, then no company will ever harm any customer.

I'll bite. How did they not harm their users?

Equifax’s customers are whoever pays them for access to data. Their customers are not the people who had their personal data exposed.

The first rule of Web 2.0 is still true: if you are not paying for the product you are the product.
