I'm wondering what exactly people raising privacy concerns are worried about?
Even if I tell you my ASL, what can you do with that info?
I'm usually very privacy aware.
The big tech firms already have the information, it can also likely be brought on the dark web.
44/M/NZ BTW. Even if I tell you which small town I'm from, it doesn't get you to my doorstep.
Nope. I am reluctant in sharing the info. But i am not from 80s and i am neither from north america nor from eu .
I am a male though.
Thank you but I was born in the 70s. Did you want to see a picture of the burnt orange shag rug in my childhood bedroom?
I'm a 19-year-old female corvid that migrated to North Africa for better mate selection. I still managed to get a social security number in the US by showing up to the government offices piled on top of other crows in a trench coat and it is "315 34 5262". My bank account is filled with thousands of dollars in change stolen from people and can be accessed with the username "blackwings" and the password "neverdie111". Please don't use this information for any nefarious purposes. I need to feed my crow family.
I'm a woman and I was born in the 1990s. I do live in North America though.
Yes.

Yes yes no
Nah. I'm an 18-year-old male from Pakistan
Most maybe, but every other demographic is just valid a contributer to the conversation
Too old to understand why youβre asking about American Sign Language

How has nobody memed this yet? You guys seem waaay too comfortable sharing personal information for the fact that this is the website of linux nerds, don't you care about online privacy?

(I understand the curiosity, but come on now)
I feel like an anonymous survey would be much more privacy respecting than everyone commenting with their demographicsβ¦

Omg this is getting silly. Asklemmy really is just a user profiling feed.
Lemmings of Lemmy: What's your blood type and eyeglass prescription?
Male, 90s, South Asia.
Ha I thought for a second your age was in the 90's, but then I considered it more likely that you were born in the 1990's, right?
Be careful giving away personal information on Lemmy. Itβs wildly difficult to ensure stuff is deleted or removed in the Fediverse across multiple servers.

So I am a male, born in the eighties, split about 75/25 NA/EU.
Do I fit the demographic? You misunderstand...
I AM the demographic.

Anonymous polling would be nice
No, no, and yes.
I am surprised that this post received so many genuine answers.

I feel like there's a really good amount of Europeans around, but I might just imagine that because I browse new at the times when Europeans would be awake haha
I think it's mostly because European are more aware of privacy, open source and such. I see that trend here and in many open source projects, and I browse on US times.
