This is not correct; you need to say "full birthday" which includes the year, otherwise the statement is nonsense.
- dopamean 11y agoI assumed he meant day, month, and year.

- nitrogen 11y agoI'd still bet that month/day, gender, and zip code are enough to uniquely identify a very large number of people.
- 0xcde4c3db 11y agoI don't see how that would work unless you're talking about ZIP+4 and not just a regular ZIP code. It would work for very sparsely-populated areas and extremely small towns, but most residents will share a ZIP code with thousands of others.
