After reading this article I would say the two economic theories that relate to this letter are rational choice and classical economic theory. Reason being rational choice theory because this company did seem to have a malware or some sort of security in place. It’s just that it was compromised. They were breached and now making it aware to their customers that information had been compromised. Now as for the classical economic theory I simply believe in the fact we as humans willingly provide info to companies for a service. In the end for them to monetize our information whether we know if it is secured or not, we need a service, and companies provide that service to us.
No for the two social sciences that relate to this article in my opinion are social cyber-forensics and motive identification. I say this because the social cyber-forensics is clear from the article as mentioned they are in cooperation with the federal law enforcement. In the part where it mentioned “what are we doing?”. This kind of piggybacks into my next reason for motive identification. With them bringing in law enforcement they can detain the people and figure out what did they do with this information. Was it just for personal gain, money or just to say they could hack a company? The letter was clear though in how it broke it down. Though this was just an example.
