...ah, we've gone back to Porsches again now. I imagine it will be Rolexes soon.
I was talking about getting a winning lottery ticket.. well I didn’t get one.
unless it's some kind of truss.
I take it none of you have got an Alexa or anything of the sort
Wouldn't give anything like it houseroom
If phones really were listening to conversations, you'd be getting A LOT more of this. Why would they go to all the trouble of building such a system, then use it only for really obscure things?Phones definitely listen to you. I have no doubt of this.
My most obvious example was we were on holiday in little village in Devon two years ago. Did a day trip with the kids to a theme park - one of the rides had a mobile elevated scissor platform next to it. Back in our digs that evening we were discussing our day and I commented to my Mrs that the ride must break down a lot to have a MEWP next to it.
Woke up the next morning and personalized adverts do you need to hire MEWP in tiny village that we were in
You've missed my point I feel. I am getting very specific advertising for a lot more things.If phones really were listening to conversations, you'd be getting A LOT more of this. Why would they go to all the trouble of building such a system, then use it only for really obscure things?
You might want to read my post on the page before, and tell me the difference between this and your case ?You've missed my point I feel. I am getting very specific advertising for a lot more things.
This is just such a niche and very specific example, it was totally clear it was from being listened to.
Mewp hire is pricey and as an advertising stream has a high revenue (in a prev life I worked in advertising field), so it's not obscure... The company advertising the mewp would have been paying good money somewhere to be advertised. It's just nuts that your phone is listening and pushing specific advertising based upon what it's heard.
Since the ad mentioned the village, it was obviously geographically targeted there for some reason. Maybe that theme park uses them enough that such advertising seems worthwhile. You were there, and that, perhaps along with something else in your ad profile, was enough that you got targeted.You've missed my point I feel.
