With companies knowing so much about us because of our online usage, is it possible we are also being listened to on our smart phones?
The answer, for now, is no. If you wonder why you are targeted with ads that are eerily specific, it’s because Facebook, Google, Amazon and other companies know pretty much everything you do online. Every post on social media gives them a clue. Google has trackers on 76 percent of websites while Facebook watches us on 23 percent of sites.
They probably know more about us than our families do! It’s creepy for sure, but then again, we almost always see ads that are useful.
Privacy is a thing of the past unless you go off the grid.
