Free your Double

Get your Double out.

It shops, prints its receipt, then talks to you. It's sure it's the real you.

  1. 1Open About You ↗Amazon app: Me → your name → About You. US accounts.

On a computer with Chrome or Edge, it's one click with the free extension.

Is this allowed?

It's your account and your data. California's Attorney General says your right to see your data includes the guesses a company makes about you, trade secret or not. Since July, Connecticut's law says so outright. Amazon even has a button to download the rest.

Act two

That was the trailer.

About You is the part Amazon shows you. Your full file has the rest, including the ad audiences it sorts you into. Ask for it now and it should arrive before Black Friday. Then your Double gets weirder.

Privacy Central → Request All Your Data → then confirm the email Amazon sends. Most people miss that step.

Nov 27

On Black Friday, your Double goes again.

Real stores, real prices, and the fake sales get stamped. You spend nothing unless you tap yes on something.

Simulated Shopping

Your Double shops so you don't have to.

Simulated Shopping does that for the rest of the year.

Questions

Is this Amazon?

No. Amazon wrote the guesses. We read them out loud.

Is this allowed?

It's your data. California's Attorney General says your right to see it includes a company's guesses about you, trade secret or not. Since July, Connecticut's law says so outright.

Does Amazon mind?

We didn't ask.

Does anything get bought?

No. Your Double has no card. Charged 0.00. On Black Friday it can buy one real thing if you tap yes, at that store's own checkout.

Why won't it shop "flat buttocks"?

Your Double has standards. Body and health guesses print as VOID. Kids stay off the receipt.

Can I talk to it?

Yes. After the receipt, your Double says hi. It's sure it's the real you and you're the copy. It always wants to buy something. You're the one who says no.

Do you keep my guesses?

No. Screenshots are read on your own device. A receipt link carries its own lines; we don't store them. Amazon keeps plenty.

If you keep your Double, its shoppable lines go to your Simulated Shopping account so it can remember you. VOID lines and lines about kids never leave the page. Delete it any time.
