Before I deliberately locked myself out of it (well before Musk), I asked for my data.

They classify me as:

  * speaks Indonesian
  
  Interested in:
  * Beer
  * Cricket
  * DJs
  * Dance
  * Enterprise software
  * Horror
  * NFL football
  * South America

  And aged either between 13-54 or (and?) over 65

Other than the age (I'm neither under 13 nor between 55-64), everything I've listed is incorrect.

On that basis, they'd probably call me a Republican.

Carries a different meaning when you're British, that name does.

What a strange age classification — no idea about what your age actually is, just that it definitely isn't 55-64. I assume it would never conclude you are under 13 for legal reasons.

Aren't "enterprise software" and "horror" the same thing?

Fair.

I try to avoid both, when I can. :)

I'm a guy in my 30s but they had me classified as a 65+ year old woman. They also thought I was a radiologist.
