Think about it this way. Any online activity has an ip address atatched to it and a very approximate location. Not nearly enough for a hacker to use. However, there may only be a few people in your area with the exact same birthday. If the hacker is lucky, you could be the only one. This may be enough for the hacker to start breaking into accounts as some companies only need you to give them your birthday and address for a password reset. If you've also put your name online, even better for the hacker. Of course, nothing will probably happen, but it is always a good idea to be safe than sorry.
