Gee, what if you don’t have a social media history?

I’ve never been on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Myspace or any of that narcissistic crap.

Is FR considered ‘social media’? (If so, I guess I’ll never get a license in New York.) (Not that I’d ever even go there)

Of course in China, you are now required to have a Social Media Score to get a job, open a bank account or rent a place to live. I guess that New York could require that you post to Twitter and Facebook and Instragram, and use a Google Mail address for all your emails, and use Google for your search engine, to make it all easy for them.

And while I’m sure that Google, Yahoo, and Bing would be glad to give (or sell) them your search history, unless you search only from a static IP address, or from your ‘registered smartphone, how do they know for sure it is you, without a massive NSA level investigation to correlate your entire online life.?

As a registered FR member, they’re probably more interested in that than FB or Tweeter.
