Most countries don't have such a number with such high value.
- lonelappde 7y agoHow do those countries handle taxes, public services, and credit?
- Avamander 7y agoThose countries do have a number, but it's not SSN it's a National Identification Number and its usually not considered valuable or secret information.
- eximius 7y agoThey have similar IDs, but they are IDs not authentication methods in and of themselves. SSNs are Bearer IDs that the knowing of is proof of identity, which is dumb.
