Appears to me to be a bit of a misleading title; the hack cost Capital One $270m in fines and compensation. Title seems to imply $270m was stolen in the hack.

  That was definitely the implication I took but I don’t think the title is misleading. If the hack cost a company 270m it was a 270m hack imo. Similar to how we measure property damage.

  Thanks for pointing it out. I've edited the title.
