Why does Gmail need to know your gender? How about Spotify? Apps and sites routinely ask for this information, for no other reason except to analyze trends or send you marketing messages (or sell your data so that others can do that).
People should feel more empowered to lie/mess with Bog Tech. Could become a trend to have wrong age/pronouns etc. I def do this to obscure birthdate from data vacuums (it’s almost used as a pass key by some companies (eg banks))
