out of curiosity, are you "privacy conscious", as in minimize sharing your location, personal information, etc?
I have a pet hypothesis that a lot of the security heuristics they use are based on being able to spy on you everywhere you go, and the trail of digital litter you leave behind "confirms" it's you where you are.
It's difficult to draw conclusions from my own experience because the security landscape changes and I don't know what other people encounter. I do know people who spend their lives online on the phone and they don't complain about having problems blowing their whole paycheck every week; like for instance my assistant who doesn't either have trouble purchasing things for me.
- deathanatos 3y agoI happen to share a name with somebody in my family, and these risk-reduction facets literally cannot tell us apart. I've been told "wrong answer" when giving the right answer to questions about myself, but they're asking me questions about a different person, because again, having the same name is sufficient to get mixed up, apparently.
