You should go and actually talk to a dealer or a WDFW regional office. The SSN is only required for your first initial purchace. The data you give them is then saved into a data base. You never have to give them your number again. Yuo are issued a wild ID number and you can use your drivers lisence #. Many dealers are lazey and ask for your ssn but you can tell them no and use one of your other choices. As for your paranoia about the "non state workers" Once you have given your number it is blacked out for any other further access. No one can see it. You might want to try an aluminum foil hat, I hear it might block big brother from reading your thoughts. The truth is out there Scully.
