Question

Which of these probably could not be used to identify you without additional information? A. Your student identification number O B. Your full name O C. The city you were born in Your Social Security number

Answer 1

The correct answer is C. The city you were born in

Explanation:

Information such as your full name, identification number or Social Security number are all types of information other people or agencies can use to identify you, because these belong exclusively to you. For example, the social security number is different for each person and thus, you can use it in the same you use your name because this represents only you.

However, the city you were born in is not information that people or entities can use to identify you because many people are born in the same city and therefore whether you were born in New York City or San Francisco does not reveal your identity or who you are to other people or entities such as banks.
