This is a valid reasoning on the part of those who oppose such checks.

This is not.

If one believes this, then one should be opposed to banks and other lending institutions checking potential loanees' credit histories.

The solution is simple. Either obtain a credit card or take your business elsewhere. Good luck finding another company that does take debit cards that won't do the same thing.
