Well I had it disabled on my main account, but to be sure I checked my other accounts, which weren't disabled. Turns out Google thinks I'm a high income female who works at a large real estate company. Kind of tempted to visit a bunch of weird sites to poison their data more

I checked my throwaway/spam account. Apparently, I'm a high-wage tech employee at a large company, and I'm also a homeowner.

Damn, they think too highly of me.
