I’m so tired of having no rights to privacy simply because I live in America.

Do you think people want a job where they have to listen to you bitch that you don't have enough pickles on your burger out of the goodness of their hearts, Janice? in c/[email protected]

They want to make the excuse that these jobs are not designed to make people money. And yet when we talk about suppressing the power and ubiquity of corporate greed across America, and all of the economic harm that comes with it, all we hear is “but they create jobs!”

Not to mention ultra-processed foods and soft drinks are costing thousands of lives and billions of dollars of medical expenses per year. We have the fast food industry causing a health crises and a shitty ‘healthcare’ system perpetuating it.

Your phone number is linked to your social security number in the data marketplace. So it’s kind of the same thing except only powerful corporations can access it and not just a random individual.

Not just for banking. For any app that does not need to know my entire work, housing, medical and purchase history, and my entire contact list just to make a transaction on their app.

Why would we assume the VOIP company isn’t selling our data?

It’s not really compromising but that the VOIP service sells or shares my info as part of their T&C so it would mean having the same level of security as my putting my primary phone number out there, only now I have 2 entities selling & sharing my info, plus the VOIP cost.

ADP.com > menu > sign in > need help signing in > my current employer uses ADP

If the person does currently work with a company using ADP, it will work 100% of the time.

If the person USED to work for a company using ADP, it will work some of the time. I’m guessing it has to do with the particular ADP/subsidiary services used by the most recent employer. That’s just a guess.

You’re right. One can always email [email protected] if they don’t live in the state of California and are looking to waste some time and blood pressure points.

Sorry, friend! ADP stands for Automatic Data Processing. They are a leader in the Payroll & HR solutions. Its where you go to view your paycheck or update your insurance beneficiary information.

Hey, now. Don’t go blaming the person who is calling attention to negligence of another. 5 years ago, ADP had user support service to handle login issues. But with the diminishing right to privacy in recent years, it is much more convenient for them to simply give the information away.

On their website, go to the sign in screen and click “Need help signing in”. Go through the prompts and watch the person’s username, and the legal name of all their employers (who have ever used ADP) appear on the screen.

Note: Whether or not you select “my current employer uses ADP”, it will still show you the full list of both current and previous employers (who use ADP).

From there, it is remarkably easy to gain access to paycheck information if you are ~~a grocer, a landlord, a retailer, or anyone of the 2737429193 entities who may~~ have a little extra data on them.

Edit: To address some of the comments, I feel I need to clear something up. I’m not saying this is some authoritarian configuration error ADP messed up on. It’s a standard login that works conveniently for ADP and also happens to be negligent in privacy protection. And it’s most likely completely legal for most people in the U.S.

I’m looking into getting a flip phone with a separate number so that I can sign up for a few apps that without associating them with ~~the complete identity profile in the data marketplace that is linked to~~ my actual phone number.

To be clear, the apps will still be downloaded and utilized on my primary smartphone. But the phone number through which I receive verification codes during registration will be a separate device.

Has any one done this? Tips for selecting a cheapo phone and prepaid service?
