    Your social security number does not have to be on the drug testing information?

    It’s not tin foil.
    I have friends that work this field, they have studied pretty much all of the latest breaches in depth.
    It’s pretty ducking scary how effective hackers are.
    And most of the time it’s a ####### loosing a laptop or opening a sketchy attachment that kicks the whole cluster#### off.

    Correct.

    You would be INcorrect.


    I use my EIN now but when I was a company guy I often used my DL number. You can look the regulation up yourself if you want more information but there's a guidance for it here:

    Issue 28, Pg 3 - FTA Drug And Alcohol Regulation Updates

    I was referring to the terrorist and the fbi wanting to search his phone but apple wouldn't give out the necessary tools because of right to privacy.

    That link says FTA, Federal Transit Authority not FMCSA

    There's a fundamental misunderstanding here. For encryption to be secure in any way there cannot be backdoors. That's why every tech literate person is horrified that government wants them.
     
    speedyk and DSK333 Thank this.

    You're joking, right? It's ALL Federal and controlled by the FMCSA. There is NO regulation, law or any other Federal requirement that mandates the use of a person's SSN to take a drug test. ANY unique identifier can be used. I'm attaching Part 40 for you. The rest is up to you, my friend.

    eCFR — Code of Federal Regulations

    Dave slow the #### down and read with comprehension, a crash is totally different than a hack, if LS it is so great why do the drivers complain about the load board going down (crashing)
     
    DSK333 Thanks this.
