So that if we see his SSN released in a future hack we can be sure to text him a warning to freeze his credit, and he can apply for two months of free credit monitoring.
Is SSN, phone, and home address repeated for ~200 pages? Seems like there's more to it than just that data.
It’s not, but the rest of the content is.
