Okay, I can say with 100% certainty that many of the data points they publish on me are details I packed into Amazon product reviews, as I participate in Amazon Vine.

I recognize the Expressions I used, and know the anecdotes I pulled from. I'm not saying it's the only source, but they have over 500 entries in the stack here that I'm looking at, as I'm deleting them one at a time I'm remembering what reviews they're associated with.
