I'm being watched

Welcome to [current era], where it's more alarming how not enough people are alarmed of the state of surveillance and tracking that goes on and, frankly, being listened in on through anything that has a microphone is just one of those things you should come to expect at this point. Among other things.
 
At this point our phones probably know us better than some relatives
Sometimes the algorithms feel less like recommendations and more like “bro we heard everything.”
 
These sites we use are free because WE are the commodity.

I didnt realize how deep it could go until working with a really good paid ads guy. and he explained how things work and how we can target people. freakin wild.

Also i love the memes where guys are whispering into their wives phones "new golf clubs" or "porsche GT3RS" LOL trying to game the system so they get a good birthday gift.
 
And yet people still have Alexa in their house! Watch the Black Mirror ep. "Joan Is Awful" for more on this topic.
 
That's just how ads work. Once, I was mentioning a product in person, and then on my phone I kept getting recommendations for that specific product on every app I use.
