Not sure what the play is here. By changing your name you are telling the government about your new name. So they will just search for all of your names.

- graphe 3y agoGood luck looking though all the John Smiths. If the government can fuck up because they didn't check Firefox instead of internet explorer I'm hoping there's little human errors that will make it harder. I'm sure they have electronics checks but I'm sure there's human error too.
- contingencies 3y agoProbably in many countries there could be a sketchy but still potentially viable process of changing your DOB, for example by attesting to incorrect original documentation by various corruptible authorities and presenting such to other authorities (eg. claiming an off-by-one on month or day). This may be more effective in conjunction with name change as it pretty much removes the major de-duplicating factor in most government identification schemes.
