You're lost, too? Well, at least I've got company. And no, I really
didn't know before this that the FAA database accessible by the public
included my full address; I simply never had a reason to look before
now. And my name is not in the phone book -- I pay extra to keep it
out. I also Google my name occasionally and it always comes up
empty. I thought I was being cagey enough, but now I learn from
privacyrights.org that 41 states and DC maintain at least one type of
public record with residents' Social Security numbers, as do at least
28 percent of county governments. Government, as usual, is way behind
the bad guys.
