I totally agree. We need to throw our reliance on SSN out the window since the hackers are selling all of ours on the dark web as I speak. I like the idea floated out here or some other strong ID route such as SSH keys between 2 parties. All adult American SSN have been compromised so we have to move on to something else that offers stronger deterrents against hackers or ahole credit bureau agencies like Equifax who steal consumers financial data and make it broadly available for hacking.
