Ok, so mostly just as a curiosity? Surely it’s not going to say something outright incriminating next to your profile, like “- Decided to see if we can mess with their gender confidence” or “- MKUltra 2.0 Subject #87,012”
I can see where you’re going with the young, white, Christian = [Interest group D4], but I think that gets into what people think Facebook and such really are. Are they showing people what they want, or what they should see? If a profile had (Mountain Dew, WWE Wrestling, White, Male, Carpentry) a company gambling with their ad $ would say “All you can eat BBQ ribs at Jimmy’s Smoke Joint”, because that’s a fair guess about what they want. Although it’d surely be nice if they saw ads for a delicious Coq au Vin and maybe took the opportunity to expand their horizons, but that’s not what any part of the system exists to do, and I’m not sure I really fault them for it.
It’s really no different with any other dichotomy; politics, rage bait, educational…what they probably want is terrible and gives you heart disease and the stupids, but they don’t exist to force vegetables onto your plate.
