I stumbled across this just a little while ago. It's sure interesting what some persistent bright researchers can come up with, and a bit alarming at the same time.

    From what I understand this article states that its really easy to figure out a persons SSN if the person with the kind of information that one could find freely on sties like facebook. I heard this only really effects those who were born after 1988 since thats when the government started assigning the numbers by your DOB.

    I'm so glad I was born before that.
