"Over 60% of Americans have had personal data breached: U.S. News"   When we saw that headline, we were surprised that it wasn't 99%. Ask around: How many people do you know who've had their financial, social media, email or any other online info stolen?    The U.S. News survey was done with about 1,200 U.S. adults, who answered questions on topics ranging from passwords to compromised data. About 61% said, yep, their data had been breached; 44% said it had happened more than once.   If your identity is stolen, here's what to do, according to the Federal Trade Commission: Report the breach to any appropriate company, such as your bank, retailer, credit card holder, driver's licence center or Social Security office; check and lock your credit reports; change your passwords and don't use the same passwords for multiple accounts; and add two-factor authorization to your social and other accounts.   Finally, commiserate with the other two-thirds of society that's gone through it as well.

(Dan Gleiter, PennLive.com) Trailblazers Black History Month celebrates the past and ongoing achievements and contributions that Black Americans have made on the nation.

The family of the man who was killed, however, says he suffered from mental health issues and that the system failed him.   Trump in Harrisburg: Former President Donald Trump will be a featured speaker at the National Rifle Association's Great American Outdoor Show in Harrisburg this week. He'll be there from 5 to 7 p.m. on Friday. Admission to the speech is included in the cost of a show ticket.   Crazy weather: January was an odd month in the Harrisburg area. The region got nearly 200% more precipitation than normal, including from a couple of snow storms, but overall was warmer than usual.   State data loss questions: Senators tried to take a deep dive into how the data loss on state government computer servers occurred last month but were able to ferret out few details from Gov. Josh Shapiro's administration yesterday. Officials say they're reluctant to discuss details publicly.
