My birthday in American MMDDYYYY format shows up in the first few ten-million digits, but in standard DDMMYYYY format, it's not in any of the digits that site is able to check.

Self-doxxing! Makes me wonder how many of the dates would fit.

Around 60% of 8-digit strings appear in the digits their algorithm knows about, according to the website. So I figured it's not THAT identifying.
