    I have to agree. I don’t care if their own data analytics are wrong. If they think 80% of their users are women when it’s only 60%, that’s their problem, not mine.

      Yeah Google simultaneously thinks I’m a teenage man and mid 40s woman. Like sure bud, whatever makes you happy.

      Edit:checked my analytics. They’re a leetle bit more accurate than they used to be. Still not great. Can’t nail my relationship status, job field, or education level.
