Still to invasive. This could be a gold mine for identity thieves. Confidential my arse! Have you ever known the Fed's to be honest and trustworthy? These are rent-a-dopes conducting the Census and Community Survey.

A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti. Dr. Hannibal Lecter:

During the last census, they left a packet on the door of my great grandparents house. It has been vacant since 1972. It is in the middle of nowhere behind a locked gate and a half mile from the road. They must look at satellite photos to find these structures.

My kid brother did the census gig some years back.
We are in a rural area.
They cut back his mileage claim.
Made him go back to get absent people but would not pay the extra mileage saying to use the phone.
Most of the 'call backs' were toll calls and they refused them as well.
The result was he used up a couple weeks of time and was out of pocket on the exercise.
It did however get him out of the house for needed exercise.

Just got my census notification. Did it online - took 5 minutes. Pretty sure it was the short version. I had no problem doing my part. Maybe that data will help provide backgroud that gets $$ for broadband, better roads, rural development, etc.
They ask your age and your birth date. I will give them my age. Not so sure I will give them my full name either. To much info given to who knows. I feel that the Census is a "Count" of the people. They don't need such personal information.

I agree. My past study of the census's confidentiality pledge and possible changes through "revisions", has me questioning IS MY INFO SAFE. Other's have questioned too and only get vague answers and lawyer double-speak. This is an interesting read on this subject:

I just need your name and pin number Thanks.
EXACTLY!
