You give a millimeter and the powers that be will take a whole kilometer.

No compliance.

Even something as "small" as this needs to be met with prejudice.

In an ideal world, even that optional DOB field would have been blocked. Your first instinct on seeing techbros wanting to surveil us shouldn't be "how we can comply", but "how can I fight it".
