I worked with Tony a number of years ago and have been following him on social media. He does a lot of public records research, and for the last two+ years or so, he's been fighting the Hennepin Count Sheriffs office over public records requests about law enforcement's use of biometrics. As of April of this year, the Minnesota Court of Appeals ruled against Hennepin county. I'm not sure if the county is planning on appealing to the Minnesota Supreme Court, but based on their behavior so far, I'd bet on an appeal.

I can confirm at least the first 6 digits are MMDDYY based on the date that I saved it into 1password. The last 4 digits seem like could very likely be hhmm.

Edit: Can confirm: The pin is the exact date/time stamp that my freeze was applied. I'm able to tell based on another note saved to 1password. It is within 1 minute :(

Just try it out for yourself, like others did: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15204573

I can confirm. The time is in EST. Now anyone who knows when your froze your credit, also knows your exact PIN.
