Thank Yous are due to many folks who helped me in this mission.
Thanks first of all to Greg Beck and the other fine folks at Public Citizen, and who support their work.
Some I hesitate to acknowledge in public – the lawyers and others who advised me, especially during the period I lacked adequate counsel, and the folks that helped me find new counsel. Private thanks to these Good Samaritans will have to suffice.
Thanks to the whistleblowers who helped to clarify how much (in particular, how little) TD Ameritrade has been doing to protect clients. Their surprising decision and ability to help has moved the case forward significantly.
Thanks to the fellow class members who encouraged me and provided moral support.
Thanks to the matthew.elvey.com clients who stood by me.

You realize that your decision to exclude yourself from the settlement means that your objection is going to be tossed out as without legal standing, right?

Mr. Frank,
What are you talking about? Oh, perhaps some people don’t understand my use of the word if! I did NOT exclude myself.
Given what you’ve already gotten wrong about this settlement I’m not surprised by your latest comment!
Again, you might want to actually read the complaint, or explanations of others (both of which are in the case docket).
Again, TD Ameritrade has ADMITTED there was a breach; see http://datalossdb.org/incidents/787 particularly the record types compromised list, and the primary sources section.
