The bit in the article about copying the ID one more time for every single picture you take had me ROTFLMAO. Some how I'm pretty sure I'm not going to prison for not having half a million copies of my model's ID.
Second - I know of no producer that is going to give you the full address, name and SSN of an actor/actress. With identity theft and privacy act issues so in the forefront, it would be suicide to give out this information. All the producers that I've worked with, will provide a sanitized copy of the ID with pretty much everything but the picture and birthday blacked out, the date the images were created - if the feds need more, send them to my house - I have the records and they'll only get shown to folk that can provide me with proof of their identity and need to see them.
One of my previous jobs was an Inspector for the Government and i was tasked to ensure compliance with the Privacy Act of 1974 - If 2257 implemented the way suggested in the linked article, you would just be packing your prison bags for another pain-in-the-ass Federal law.
And yes - I've spent thousands on legal advise and read more than I care to remember on the subject.
Link to the sponsor's 2257 and insist the don't mix adds in the 2257 or find a different sponsor - god knows that's no shortage of the vermin.
