Thread: facebook is listening to you....

Google must be measuring the level of concern in this thread:

Google stops scanning your Gmail to personalise its ads

I particularly like the statement that if the service is free then you are the product.

SWMBO is becoming suspicious!

And yet, I don't get them.
Their marketing algorithms are stuffed. I usually get bombarded with ads for things I have already bought.

Yep, every time I buy something, I get hit with ads for exactly what I've just bought - a bit late me thinks.

And not a hot Asian Girl in sight...

well, go and buy one!

I think thats more to do wth the settings in the adwords account of the business you bought from - they have retargeting ads set up, but don'tset them up to turn off based on a conversion.

All I get is furries.
What am I doing wrong?!?!

I'm old enough to remember them, and young enough to enjoy the new.

The sad thing is that the only thing in the past that could cure a broken heart was a device called the 'hair poultice' and these days they seem to be hard to find.

I have been testing this with not only my own phone but a few close friends.
we talk about complete random products only verbally without searching them on our phones or writing anything online and bam within 7 days we will all have adds for the products we have been talking about.
I've tried it now with various different products, from tool boxes , sheds , air conditioning , car problems , sporting events etc etc etc.
those who don't beleive it are living in a fairy tale. Welcome to the future as some say.....
