PayPal is updating their ToS to let themselves give your data to merchants starting in November and they're certainly banking on people not knowing to opt out, SO to opt out before they start:
go to Settings > Data & Privacy > Manage shared info > Personalized shopping, and toggle that shit off

Yeah, if you're keeping a locked Twitter accound as an archive or to prevent impersonation, you're gonna want to go in there and turn off their *Unannounced And On By Default* LLM training.
