@kawaiipunk What is even more dumber, you need to reveal these not only to gov agencies, but to every fucking obscure rental company who will keep it God knows where and sell it to God knows who.
And then you have private companies like Experian who aggregate all these sensitive details about everyone, and charge others - including government - for matches across their database.
All that because "I'm not a number" and we won't let gov keep such database on their own π€¦ββοΈ
And now it's: dear J Smith, what's your DOB, parents names, NHS, NINo, UTR, scanned passport or driver license, also can we have three years of your address history <- so much privacy, such anonymity π
