I was insulted that it rated my Aussie lingo as "British".
58% 'Murrican 42% British. So, like Irish?
This is kind of fun for practicing accents. Even with my "best" attempt at a British accent I never got below 80% American. Would be cool to see if it had any data for identifying some more specific American accents though.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
To this Canadian as well!
I'm American and to me, Aussie sounds Aussie, not at all British. I reckon I'd be insulted too.
I noticed the URL, and stayed away. They want my data for stats, profiling, or building an automated Henry Higgins, they can contact me and quote a price.

The British invariably take me for an antipodean, the Aussies usually for a Pommie bastard, and then every once in a while for a Kiwi.…
41% US, 59% British -- did a few times an the ratios reversed.
Doing impressions of British or American people got me close to 100% of their respective values. I'd say there is some merit there alright.

Cambridge Consultants is a /very/ different firm to Cambridge Analytica, if that's what you were thinking? It's a well regarded contract engineering consultancy rather than a data analysis company.
Mind you, I am always sceptical of these 'tests' all over the web. Somebody clearly is after my info for free.
