User reviews

This is a massive invasion of privacy

The fact that you have made hard working people that actually contribute to this country store all their PII data in your database while knowing that the government is horrendous as keeping this kind of data secure and on top of that you now have the ability to track my every movement is as close as you can get to communism while still convincing brain dead people that it’s to make their life’s “easier”. You’re crooks, all of you
