I'm in a jurisdiction where lying in many cases is legal. I think the principle in general is that lying without bad intent is legal.

> [...] Do not lie about your birthday to your doctor. Or your bank. Or when you’re trying to get your driver’s license. You get my point.

I don't give my real birthday to my doctor. Because why should I? An approximate birthday is totally fine for medical purposes.

Of course I don't lie to banks or the government. I think legislation against money laundering etc. is a good thing and so I accept these requirements.
