One example would be state disability programs, they already need my real name and identity to work with me. Are there any downsides to sharing a simplelogin alias containing my real name vs no containing my real name? I just think it would be easier record keeping for them.
If possible you should always try to have the email for your real name to use for business and government stuff.
Someone took my name and I am forever a myname.2@blahblah.com
Damn that sucks, I’m sorry :/
At my current university, I am firstname.lastname-4@university. My previous university, a much smaller one, I was fortunately firstname.lastname@otheruniversity, but the email client informed me there were two other people with my name there. It’s wild because I didn’t think I had a super common name.
