If special access was given to one entity, often that special access remains after the new entity takes over.
Often times the new entity gets access to private data of the old entity.
It makes record keeping difficult to know who was what entity at any given time.
If you haven’t seen the problems caused by doing this, consider yourself lucky for working for institutions that aren’t so careless.
Is this not the case?
So, maybe I have good news about SSN values! :D
