Could they be trying to make a point? About insurance abuses of this technology maybe? maybe not, could just be the algorithm failing. Or maybe they don't want to assume the liability of actually providing a number.
- yosser 6y agoNo, it's a javascript error. The second time around I agreed to the terms and conditions and then the site worked fine.
- socialcooling 6y agoYikes. Thanks, I'll look into it. The terms and conditions have no influence on this, but it could that that one of the scores required to create the life expectancy prediction is missing (age, gender, bmi, country).
- entropicdrifter 6y agoMy life expectancy was the only score that it didn't give me. It just stayed at ... and then marked that as not normal
- socialcooling 6y agoI found the issue, and it should hopefully be fixed. It happened if your IP address couldn't be used to predict your location.
- TonyTrapp 6y agoDoes it fall back to US if the IP address can't be used? Because this would be the first time a GeoIP database would move my EU IP address to the US...
- socialcooling 6y agoYes you are correct.
- yen223 6y agoIt looks like they're trying to guess at your life expectancy through your country, which they're guessing at using your IP address, which they can only get at if you agreed to the terms and conditions
