“Is Obama still using the social security number of some dead guy from CT?”

The AI algorithms will smoke that out fairly quickly.

:: Is Obama still using the social security number of some dead guy from CT? ::

“Musk also said in a separate post that “the social security database is not de-duplicated, meaning you can have the same SSN [Social Security number] many times over”

While you are correct about the weirdness of Obama’s documents, ssn are not unique to a person. There are 340 million Americans (roughly) alive today and (due to how numbering works; it’s not random) only 358 million total available. It comes out to something like the same number had been used 5 or 6 times for different people.

Duplicates were especially common around NY and the eastern seaboard because the first three numbers were for geographical location of issuance and the second set month and year.

So, when you add in dead people, recycling of numbers is common. Several people alive today probably have your number.

Note, this is not to discount your legit observation, but duplicate SSN is not, in and of itself, a red flag.
