It seems likely to me that some of the personality tests floating around the internet may well have been put out by the government. Creating predictive profiles is something they are apparently spending an enormous amount of money on, with something like the Minority Report (Philip K. Dick was a true visionary, was he not?) as a goal.
Can any of us even begin to fathom the size and scope of the databases that are being made possible by the intersection of open disclosure of personal information on the internet with a nearly infinite capacity to match varying strands of connection?
It likely doesn’t matter, but I’ve stopped answering those tests. In my own case, of course, I would hope I have a very thick file, and am high on the arrest list. That would mean my writings matter.
