The FCC wants to legally force telecoms to collect new and renewing customers’ government issued identity number and physical address, impacting everyone from the privacy-conscious to domestic abuse survivors. “We never thought that would happen here.”
Ahhh yes, the telcos, all of whom have lost all their customer information many times over with no real consequences, but those same people have had their credit ruined. This cant go wrong letting them have copies of peoples IDs which now will have their signature on record so that convincing IDs can be made from.
