A judo-style mechanism is to give wrong information when you can.
Maybe your memory isn't so good, so you transpose a number when entering your birthdate or SSN, etc.
In the end, data collection and analysis is bound by "Garbage In - Garbage Out".
Wouldn't it suck if there was a whole mishmash of garbage data on you and it caused the analysis to intertwine your personal data with others in such a confusing way that it was impossible to perform any meaningful analysis?
[NOTE] - I'm not advocating lying on legal forms, however 95%+++ of the data collected on you is not legally mandated.
Very good point. In fact I forgot to add this to the post.
