Brian Joseph’s (May 30, 2018) brilliant investigative reporting (in the Las Vegas Review Journal) on Nevada’s business registration system overseen by the Secretary of State was a real eye-opener. As a small business owner myself, and one who regularly files the required annual lists and business licenses on Nevada’s Silver Flume website, I was appalled, but not entirely surprised, at the ease with which a business’s identity can be stolen...
