Do you know if your data was shared with advertisers before you were able to turn it off?

Of course I know that. What a strange question.

GP is not literally asking if you know. They are asking you if your data was shared or not.

Well, that makes it an even stranger question. Why ask one thing if what you want to know is something else?

I'm sorry my question wasn't clear, but I was not trying to ask one thing and know something else. I will try and restate my question.

Were you given an opportunity to disable the sponsored top sites before they were first loaded and your data sent to advertisers?

That's ok but I don't know if I can help much here - I really have no idea of knowing when I was given that opportunity.
