Gender male, age 25-34, interests having nothing to do with anything medical. I could give them a half-right about the gender, because there are more male than female psychiatrists here, but only in a 60:40 ratio, and they skew older. But NOTHING about medication searches, or research into mental conditions? They think the profile attached to this cookie is interested in Mazdas and GPS systems? If this is the vaunted tracking technology we're supposed to be afraid of, and advertisers are supposed to pay Oogle actual money for, all I can say is HA HA HA HA HA HA!Bukko Boomerangerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02424677168216647964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-56204137593237046602012-01-29T12:55:02.505-08:002012-01-29T12:55:02.505-08:00Interesting.

I checked it out, and it was correct -- my husband and I keep a post office box, and I use it for <i>one single site</i>, my Etsy shop. I feel like Experian is stalking me. I suppose that's their business.

I drive a Tahoe, I'm 55, and the mechanic does the maintenance. I think the y got VW from the fact that I've been showing the new VW/Star Wars commercial (and last year's) to various family members. Maintenance is from visiting Car Talk (aka Click and Clack)Mr. 618https://www.blogger.com/profile/09888639331798664267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-17080925441520273242012-01-29T07:52:51.776-08:002012-01-29T07:52:51.776-08:00I am a 43 y/o woman but this is what google thinks...I am a 43 y/o woman but this is what google thinks: <br /><br />Age: 25-34<br />Gender: Male<br /><br />I wonder if I search for Justin Bieber if it will make me a teenaged girl?Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07492622196581763316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-50575133834372853942012-01-28T22:03:05.810-08:002012-01-28T22:03:05.810-08:00LOL...
