This is fun, but the fact that it is now so easy to process a massive amount of social media data to extract a person's political leanings, hobbies, etc and infer information about them scares me. It only takes one government change (cough cough, Reform UK) for this to be used against me. It doesn't matter if I'm politically correct when what is correct changes over time.

My spidey sense in this tingled many years ago and I pulled back from most social media platforms. This is a fun reminder that I'm still very visible.

I do enjoy its predictions.
