  "account": "Amazon maintains an impressively comprehensive dossier on its customers, as one user recently discovered. An Amazon customer stumbled upon a page that listed a series of assumptions the company made about her based on her purchases. One particularly surprising assertion was that she \"has flat buttocks.\" The post quickly went viral, with others sharing their own peculiar Amazon records, some of which were downright insulting. A woman was labeled as having \"no friends\" and another was told she has \"a stomach that hangs over their vagina.\" Other entries were more benign but still amusing, such as one customer being told they \"likes brunettes with muscles.\" Some entries were downright creepy, like the assertion that one Amazon shopper \"uses the phone in the shower to read Kindle books.\" Despite the odd and sometimes unsettling nature of these records, customers can access their own Amazon dossier by navigating to the \"Account\" section, then \"Manage your information.\" While Amazon is not the only company keeping extensive records on its customers, this recent example highlights the growing public awareness of the extent of data surveillance by e-commerce giants.",
