That's some pretty terrible logic then. "Here is a string of numbers no one else has, in order to verify the information." By the virtue of having information no one else has, no one else can verify it.
Uh, what about the person whose SSN it is? Or did they forget and not want that info expunged?
And SSNs can be verified. Its actually an incredibly insecure system. Lotta ID theft happens via illegal immigration cases due to that. And verified. Its not an SSN but an EIN. Similar but different as EIN is for corporations but still a type of social security number (that does not get social security benefits as its for a non-entity corporation). But to dogies point....it can be verified. So no personal information was doxxed, ergo no rules were broken.
