Borges warned in the complaint that if this information were compromised, “it is possible that the sensitive [personally identifiable information] on every American including health diagnoses, income levels and banking information, family relationships, and personal biographic data could be exposed publicly, and shared widely.”
The complaint said any compromise or unauthorized access to the database would have “catastrophic impact” on the U.S. Social Security program, describing a worst-case scenario as potentially having to reissue everyone’s Social Security numbers.
everything about social security numbers is so fucking stupid. here’s the most important card in your life with your unique number thats just +1 to the last, we’ve printed it on 1ply toilet paper and no you cant make copies but if you lose it or its stolen you’re unpersoned at your expense and we’re uploading them all to biggie ballz’s imgur btw
It’s not supposed to be used as ID supposedly yet the state I’m in requires employers to make a copy of yours
