lol, if it's downvoted that's how you know americans did it, because people from other countries have no idea why SS number is important or what it is
Oh, we know what it is and we also know that it is terrible for identification. Just hand out IDs with an actual unique id number with a check digit to _all_ citizens.
I wonder if he’s ever had anything positive happen because of it. That list looks like a PITA :)
I share the same name with a local TV star in my country. Even that is a PITA. Can’t imagine being named Mark Zuckerberg or Michael Jackson or anything like that. At some point there were teenager girls calling me (no idea how they got the phone number). I started acting like they called the right person and there would be happy screams on the other hand.

Good for you, Mark! I had a nice chuckle.
