They are wasting their time and resources on me, I don't succumb to click-bait advertising. The thing is that it is mostly "automated" and done with bots that surreptitiously glean your info and process it. My "free" Winix wireless app that controls my air purifiers needs access to my contacts, photos, needs to be able to make calls on the phone and access the internet, change phone settings, etc. It's a Brave New World indeed.

Fun story: My dad and I were discussing German WWII aircraft and to settle a dispute, he googled for some information on Junkers Jumo engine powered aircraft. Later that week he sent me a screen shot of a series of advertisements he was getting - "Get all your Junkers Jumo Engine Parts Here!". The kicker, the engines are virtually extinct - nobody has a warehouse of parts and would advertise like that, especially Joe Schmoe's Internet Automotive Parts Depot.

Lord help you if you have an Alexa in the house. They listen all the time and report Key Words back to Ma Amazon. You can actually have a lot of fun messing with it. No way I'm getting a Smart TV, truly shades of 1984.
