She only won compensation for identity insurance she had paid for. So, TBH, unless folks are willing to pay for identity insurance and give a lot of personal information to yet another damn company, there's still nothing the rest of us can do that don't want to do that other than wait around for our identity is stolen so we can sue for damages..
Edit: if you disagree, I'd love to hear how we can hit back. Because I've not found a way, nor seen anyone else do so in a way that doesn't require what West did in this article (paying for some service).
Edit2: I misunderstood, she did not have to pay for insurance to win.
