wants to organize a class action lawsuit against 
bc reasons 
https://old.reddit.com/r/TwoXChromosomes/comments/1igyknr/asking_women_how_do_iwe_file_a_class_action/
Basically the title- how does one go about suing a non-elected rodent-adjacent party who has compromised the entire country's personal data? Edit: thanks all, looks like we're calling reps and beating our phone-anxiety down through sheer rage. I'd like to say something positive like "we've got this, ladies!" But best I can do is team-based void screaming.

Tbh this shocked me as someone who doesn't know law. It seems if someone puts you in danger or attempts to do something short of murder, you should be made whole and they should be penalized but that is absolutely not how the law works. In the vast majority of cases you have to prove you were harmed in order for courts to do anything.
It's why we need a good samaritan law for beating the frick out of creeps (provided decent evidence of creepiness). dudes can straight up stalk women, show up at their home or place of business, etc and cops can't do shit until he does something.

if you intentionally put someone in reasonable fear/apprehension of an imminent attack thats called assault and you can sue over it. Like if someone pointed a gun that you thought to be loaded and pointed it at you and pulled the trigger, you could sue them.
thats untrue as well. The womxn can get a restraining order against a scrote if he is stalking her and then if the scrote violates the order the police can arrest them and she can sue for monetary damages aswell.

The law exists to address wrongs done to you. Until the point you've sustained actual damages there's not much the law can do. If your data has been compromised a suitable action would be to have credit and/or identity insurance, cover the costs associated with changing phone numbers, et cetera.

Because its civil law, you are explicitly suing over damages. If something is covered by criminal law then it works how you would expect.
