Does Google ask for your Social Security Number?

Does Google ask for your Social Security Number?

Just Curious?

Yes, if you're using adsense.

 

If they ask I wouldn't give it to them. Think about it?

Then you're not using adsense. Your SSN is required to use the adsense service.

 

So im guessing Corporations give them their Tax id numbers?

 

No I am not for that reason. Just not all that comfortable throwing around my Social Security Number into cyber space. With all the rampant indentity theft going on you just never know.

Just a thought?

Well, then you don't own any websites do you? Adsense = one of the main reasons why so many webmasters are making money on the internet.

 

It is by Law, atleast in the United States, that if any company, regardless if lisenced, incorporated, or if not at all, pays you more than $599, you MUST pay the government taxes.

Therefore, google is not god, and must follow the law just like anything else.

Your SSN is just to prove citizenship and background check, etc.

 

yes but a corporation would provide a Tax id NOT a SS #

 

Not sure what you call it? A half website perhaps. Never really did like Google’s adsense program. I kinda feel it compliments all the data scraping, webscraping, pagescraping, data extraction, HTML scraping, well you get the drift.

Just a quick correction no offence intented. Webmasters make money off the WWW not the internet. The two are quite distinct.

But this would be my own personal opinion nothing like getting rich off someone else’s work. Sounds pretty straight forward to me.

But hey its all up to the individual freedom of choice right? All I really have to say on the matter.

Thanks
