It’s a fault in the system for using an unsecured SSN as an identify instead of what it was initially used for.

It is alao the fault of the government for not putting a halt to and punishing those corporations who decided to hijack SSNs and treat them as some kind of secret code.

They'd have to start with the army. We used our social on everything as an identifier while I was in. I'd honestly be more surprised if my SSN wasn't compromised.

When i was in college in the 90s they used socials when they posted test scores.

One thing I noticed was that since it was a state college 90% of them started with the same 3 numbers because of how they issued SSNs.

I cannot imagine the shit fit that people would throw if we tried to implement a secure national identity number. Even the SSN got a lot of backlash for being "the mark of the beast", and that was introduced a little under a hundred years ago.

It was the government that started that in the first place lmao and then corporations went "Well the US gov can do it, why not us?"
