That might be true if banks, landlords, hospitals, schools, telephone & internet companies were prohibited by law from asking for your #Aadhaar number. But any Indian can tell you they're asked for their number by non-government entities––and those companies have databases too.
#Aadhaar is an identifier, not a profiling tool. Aadhaar database does not keep any information about bank accounts, shares, mutual funds, property details, health records, family details, religion, caste, education etc. #AadhaarMythBuster

In the US people are asked for their SSN for pretty much everything. Why is asking for #Aadhaar worse? In LK we have national IDs similarly.

Yes, SSNs are exactly the same crap, for exactly the same reason.
