I find amusing that in some countries those numbers are treated as secret. In mine all that information is public, you can even look for somebody by name or ID

- yakkers 4y agoIt's what happens when a country dismisses a proper national ID number/card -- the nearest available substitute gets used, sometimes regardless of how well the substitute works as an ID. The United States Social Security card/number comes to mind as a particularly egregious example, though I'd also consider drivers' licences (as is common in Australia) to also be a bad substitute.
