Can anyone tell me if there is merit to the phenomenon when you talk about something e.g dogs and the next day you see ads for dog food on social media? Is it just coincidence or is the phone listening?
Ofcourse they are listening. And devices like alexa and google home are custom built for this purpose.
Any sources or info though please?
Great article but terrifying
What terrifies me is, all it takes is one small mistake from us to blow our anonymous setup.
And any slip ups in the past may come back to haunt you..
Not quite the same but certainly in the spirit from Franklin;
‘Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.’
For safety read convenience maybe?
applies to so many things wrong with the society today!
True, but it's not just Google. It's basically all the big tech.
excellent article
agree very well compiled.
Yea, no smart home devices for me. But seriously, de-googling is probably a great idea.
yeah. Feeling greatful that Graphene OS exists.
