ADIZ Violation Explained in AOPA Magazine

Seems to be to me, that everyone's SS number is "out there" and here's
why.

1) Can't get a credit card without one.
2) Drivers license.
3) Most hospitals require it.
4) Social Security has it (and their data base has been compromised
int he past.)
5) Phone company (cell and landline require it)

And probably lot's more places like buying a home etc.

So, I wonder just how one can keep the number private?

My understanding is that of those four listed, only the
IRS has a legal right to the number.

that was my understanding too, but it seems that the
DMV can indeed require it, at least here in California
(I can dig it up if you'd like, it's probably buried in
my privacy related doc);

oh I forgot another bunch of folks who demand (and
use rather casually SSN#): anything to do with the
military it seems whether directly or indirectly (e.g.,
you wont be able to register for a high altitude training
without it, the CAP for some reason demand it, etc.)
