I was hoping to find some saucy info on myself, but instead I got things like “prefers premium coffee brands with consistent flavor profiles” and “likely has a workshop”

I think my favorite was “Systematically building electronics component inventory”, but pretty much the same, mostly just my brand preferences and the stuff I tend to buy.
I’m also really deliberate in how I shop Amazon though: sift through my options in a private window and once I narrow down to what I want, copy the link, remove the tracking garbage, open it in my regular window, add it to my cart, rinse and repeat. It’s probably a paper shield at best, but good to know it helps curb the “[spends an inordinate amount of time comparing items, two thirds of which are also available on Ali Express]” inference.

Concussion: nip in the bud.
Action: sending black ops team…
