Most People would need to manually remove it since (even tho maybe is's a common name/birthyear) it's not the name/birthyear of >50 % of your userbase. | |

guess the country from the IP address NO NO NO Use the HTTP headers for that, because they show the user desired language and not an increasingly inaccurate location. May I also remind you that different countries can have different languages ?

do i need to ask for the full birthday? perhaps it's some sort of statistical anomaly but a lot of services that ask for that information attract disproportionate amount of people born on the 1st of January.
