- Drbble 15y agoThat is far less than what Google's recommender system actually knows. But it is open question to an outsider whether Google interprets what it knows, or of the knowledge is all a pike of correlation matrices that are opaque until the ads pop out.
- rdtsc 15y agoWhy would they let you see all their data unless there is a legal obligation to do so? It would just freak people out and they'll start looking for ways to anonymize or find and use another search engine/email/etc. In other words given all their options and incentive they don't seem to get any benefits from really exposing all the data they have about you. One can argue that is really they most precious resource. They have some incentive to expose some to make you feel like you are somewhat in control and they are somewhat open and transparent.
