The highest credit bureaus in the US have beaten them to the punch!
I think it was only one of them
Again?
Numbers didn't change, no reason to reinvent the wheel.
aw hell yeah! I didn't need that anyway.
I feel like we need more secure than a handful of numbers account for our entire life.
Social Security Numbers were never intended to be used the way they are. They were expressly for identifying you to the Feds for the purpose of SSI. Business just looked at that and said "hey, that's a good way to identify people" and ignored the feds when they asked politely for them to fucking not.
Yup, I get the history and Gov'ment went along withit.
I mean, this is where a biometric identity authentication system would be beneficial, but like fucking hell if I trust any current entity, government or private, to run it securely for anyone's benefit and not sell the data to 3rd parties or keep it secure.
eIDs are coming. Be careful what you wish for.
Cool, cool
