fuggstop Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I suspect it may listen to what other people say about you and suggest ads on that. I say this cuz i haven't searched or even talked about a scratch on my car and i see ads for car scratch removal stuff. And i NEVER have seen an ad for something i didnt want or need in some way...its fucking spooky man. Like i dont get male enhancement pills or something shitty like that.

Doom Metal Alchemist Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I'm pretty sure it's also tied to your google searches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgive me for misunderstanding your wording of "I think fb not only listens to conversations but also what other people say about you and suggest ads on that" to mean those are the things you think your results are based on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything he was giving you more credit than he should have. and you have talked about your shitbox being “vandalized” before... it’s relatable.

GuyBeardmane Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I wouldn't be surprised with all the permissions that Facebook requires you give it on your phone that it picks up things you say in actual conversation to advertise. One of the reasons I deleted mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
