"Would encryption have prevented known major breaches?" Actually, no, I think it would have made the effects worse. If Equifax had encrypted their data, right now those clowns would be slapping each other on the back and telling themselves, nothing to worry about, no need to report this to anyone, eh boys? So the effects would have not been apparent for however long it took the people who got the data to decrypt it.
