      Mine’s not there. Some woman with almost the same name as me, yeah. Maybe you have to go off the grid for 14 years and the government just forgets you.

      Don’t see why that would have mattered, though, as long as I have no death certificate and yes registered address/phone number.

        A bunch of my tribe was missing, we don’t have a super popular surname but there’s a lot of us, regardless.

        It looked like it was mostly the older older folks who still have landlines? Because we haven’t had one for so long I can’t even remember

          Except here’s no bleed through from the user names I actually use online to my family members or irl acquaintances. Separate emails, separate identities.
