It’s to make linking various records easier. A known validated fields means you can more easily narrow down who someone is when you’re merging datasets you get from databrokers (or can get more money selling that customer data to databrokers).

AliExpress is asking me to age verify through an Israeli company to look at knives.
edit: Fucking nail scissors, are they verifying I’m over the age of 3?
At least I can still buy a nail gun, a vape or pure ethanol.

Books it is then!
