First, I’m not going to give any social media my ID.
If someone intends to expose your ID to hackers due to Twitter’s poor security performance, this presents a perfect occasion for them.
I don’t know why these social media companies are so fixated on asking for personal information. And I’m sure this is just the beginning of Elon’s grand plan.
Perhaps it’s time to abandon Twitter and move to other fediverse or decentralised platforms? I would love to see a mass migration.
All those bits of information are caller personally identifiable information (PII) and are protected by law for anything involving health and financial data.
In it’s old form, the license isn’t a huge problem because people can’t use it to clear your accounts, fraudulently open credit cards, take out loans.
All of those are trivial with the SSN, combined with a few of the above data points.
Now, however, in America the drivers license is becoming required to be a full homeland security certified ID equal to or more important than the passport.
It is encoded with all your vitals and readable by a quick scan. With your full name, age, birthdate, address, height, weight, and eye color combined with the SSN, you are screwed if shady players have that.
