Social Security number was NEVER intended to be secure nor secret.

And furthermore was never meant for any other use beyond a number for social security related record keeping purposes.

Many older SS cards issued even stated something to the effect "not for identification" right on the card.

Anyone with any sense already realizes LifeLock is basically a credit bureau monitoring service much like all the others one sees advertised on TV, etc...

What's ironic, according to the article, is that Experian is accuing Todd Davis of deceptive marketing, which is very ironic when Experian conducts it's own share of deception, such as with Experian's FreeCreditReport.com that many people confuse with the truly free AnnualCreditReport.com
