    I dunno, I'm looking through my location data and I was pretty sure I had my location disabled but I can see the exact route I took from my house to my voting station a couple days ago and I haven't even began to scratch the surface of what google has on me. I'm guessing most people are completely unaware of this.. and I haven't intentionally uploaded anything.

    you should not actually since it should reflect your highest degree. For ex, some of the TA research HITs are only designed for high school graduates not for BA/BS.

    My location data is 100% off, Google has nothing on the location map for me. The rest of the data just seems like it's all wrapped up in scary words to make Google seem all big and bad and scary. I don't think it's that big a deal that they have my Youtube history, they own the site after all, and that's how they send you targetted ads. I don't think it's that particularly big a deal that some advertising company knows I've listened to all three Run the Jewels albums via Youtube or that I've been looking up dog treat reviews.

    Also I find it incredibly ironic that site trying to make Google look bad is also asking me to turn off my adblock so they can send me more targetted adverts. Which they probably use Google to purchase, anyway.

    you can technically go from a GED to a BA?

    depends if the purpose of the qual is education level or the actual piece of paper.

    hmm true I guess. Its been over a year since I even did them so no clue if I answered incorrectly to get both since everyone else seems to only have one or the other.. wish they'd give me the masters one too I could use the extra pay bump & I'm certainly not going back to school for 2 yrs to earn it the hard way :emoji_joy:
