What kind of ads or ‘suggested’ content gets pushed to you the most on the internet? Make up your new identity based on the ad/suggested content you get served the most.

Algorithm(s) thinks I’m a menopausal Latina woman who loves cats, and wants to drive a truck/SUV. I also get a ton of of the ‘is your boyfriend/husband abusing you?’ type of therapy-talk content, which is hilarious.

Most of my ads are for menstrual products and std/hormone pharma drugs, then it’s a mix of cat/pet product ads and lots of truck/suv ads. At least 1/3 are in spanish.

Only one of these that is remotely accurate is I do have a cat.

    Ads? On YouTube? Is that a thing?

    But going by the suggested videos, it thinks I’m a political analyst who is really into hot sauce. And what British high schoolers think of American fast food.

    All of my suggested videos are from Brian Tyler Cohen, and pod save America, and David Pakman, etc… And the weekly hot ones videos. And those funny videos about what British high schoolers think about trying Arby’s or Five Guys for the first time.
