That's an effect of certain poorly-made security decisions.

For example, if a small organization such as a gym or school makes copies of all customer/user driver's licenses: They end up creating a small pile of gold that they can't afford to protect.

Don't ask for data you can't securely store. I think that's just common sense. If you keep the data on paper, you wouldn't leave it out in the open for anyone to take it would you?
My Grandmom's letters are pretty entertaining and I am happy they are getting wider distribution.
