If the article does anything for you it makes you aware of what is out there. The funny part is the kid behind the counter is more likely to take your credit information than a hacker at a hotel. Yet people will be more afraid of the hacker.

You know, I could have used this about two weeks ago when I was staying at a Holiday Inn Express for two weeks straight. Then I could have actually said, "No, but I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night?"
