- The Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles announced yesterday that they
- will no longer use SSN's on licenses. The brief report on the radio this
- morning did not go into detail on how/if present license numbers (which for
- most people are the SSN) would be converted. The privacy issue was cited as
- the driving force behind the policy change.
