My zip code is on my driver's license, so I can't avoid that one, but a dropped card would not have it of course (I found one on a walk recently). But entering the zip has only come up with gas stations (for me) and that is one of the most common uses of stolen cards.

I only care about identity theft if my wallet's stolen, not the card use for which I am not liable if I report it within 24 hours (maybe even 0 then).

A good friend of mine said never to sign a card, because then if a forger must sign "for me" it won't look like my signature if the credit card company says it really was me. But hilariously my father in law actually signs "Mickey Mouse" on those electronic pads at Home Depot and so on. And he's never once been asked about it...
