This really pisses me off because you don't even have an option to not do business with the DMV. Even if you don't drive (highly unlikely in FL), you still need a non-driving ID card so there's no way to avoid getting swept up into this bullshit.
I see they have included an opt out link. That's nice. I wonder if they honor it. Even if they do, 99.999% of the population will never even know to do this because they've probably never heard of this company (I didn't until today).

Not only that, now you know about it and you opt out, but that doesn't get your data back from every place they sold it to the week before you found out about it.
- stronglikedan 7y ago> you still need a non-driving ID card Just to clarify, the state ID is not required by law, but you will be hard pressed to get by socially without it.
- JangoSteve 7y agoIn the posted video, they said it was required for Medicaid.
- stronglikedan 7y agoAmong other things. You'd have to live a mostly-off-grid lifestyle without it, but it's possible and completely legal. I.e., you are never legally required to produce any type of state ID card in Florida.
- jstarfish 7y agoNot true. In most states (FL included) you will be arrested for failing to identify if there is probable cause for requesting such identification, i.e. a traffic violation or suspicion of criminal activity.
- stronglikedan 7y agoStill true. All that means is verbally telling them the correct name and birthdate. No ID required. (Unless, of course, you were driving, obviously.)
