I don't feel manipulated either; it was just a bit of fun.

You don't have to give any personal details to fill in the questionnaire. And as I was doing it on my work computer, I doubt if anyone would go to the trouble of whittling it down to me.

And I have never lived in a country where I was eligible to vote.

I'm French, must be all those French recipes I've tried.

"They" may try to manipulate me. But they won't.

Well I can vote in Tanzania. But apparently quite a number of women there were divorced after the last election for voting against their husbands’ wishes. The manipulation could come in handy as an excuse.

I am not able to vote in Ethiopia.

and I can't see how it will manipulate my vote, I am not easily led.

The whole point of this and a any other similar "games" on the internet is to harvest your data. It is not just a bit of fun foe your amusement, it will help the wrong people manipulate your vote.

Well, just you and me so far, Riverwalk. I’ve always had a fancy for going to Zanzibar - it sounds so very exotic.

JoyBloggs Wed 11-Jul-18 15:42:32

Yep, another Greek here... anyone fancy a virtual Zorba's dance?

Riverwalk Wed 11-Jul-18 14:26:59

I'm a Tanzanian - sounds OK to me!

Just the other day when I was asked where in the world I'd never been to but would love to visit I said anywhere in Africa!
