That’s called targeted ads. Your Facebook apps monitors your browsing habits and also records and stored your audio via your phone’s mic. That is why you never give mic permissions when installing anything.

Fee days ago I bought a Samsung phone, Elepaq Generator and Samsu oil...

Boom on my Facebook timeline I saw ad of the three items I bought

Is anyone experiencing same?

You've made a lot of sense chxe!!!

Explains the same phenomenon on smart TVs..

If there's audio spy, could there be video spy?? ..

This explains the scenario as described above - of meeting a lady at the mall and 2 says late AI delivered!!

Be careful of what you say or look at - is so pertinent now more than ever!!

Re: Facebook Is Monitoring Me by bluefilm: 4:21pm On Apr 24, 2021

You might think it’s a joke but Facebook has access to your microphone and can listen to your conversations.

Their special AI till transcribe and take out key words from your speech using a sophisticated algorithm and tailor your ads accordingly

Yes I feel same way too. I am convinced we are being spied upon by this so called tech giants.

There are times I may discuss a product with someone on the phone and boom, I open google or fb and I see ads about that thing. Makes me feel my calls are being monitored

There are even times when I may just think about a product without searching for it and then I begin to see ads about that product

It’s really weird and more people should speak up about this
speak up about what? Just exit the internet na

If I search or check out any item on jumia, I'll see the exact same items on apps that show ads. I initially thought they were monitoring me too until I discover they show you ads based on your interest. But this one you said you didn't search any, there's problem o grin Why will they monitor you though? Not that you work for shekau's men grin

Re: Facebook Is Monitoring Me by Nobody: 4:23pm On Apr 24, 2021
Prometheus AI has been unleashed. Your phone and smart TV as well as most electronic devices have listening apps preinstalled.

Your conversation at home are recorded by default and stored on the unlimited cloud servers for ads, tracking and policing.

Your phone is not yours, while you pay for it and activates it, you are just a user as all your keystrokes and communication are harvested and stored.

You are a commodity. You are data.

It's called personalised ads. You must have chosen personalised ads on Facebook or Google ad settings.

They present you with ads that are only related to your Google or other app searches.

You may have googled or searched for those items prior to there purchase.

No, even talking about it on whatsapp and the ads will keep following you. Why not go to a friend on whatsapp and tell him/her you want to buy an LG generator or TV and see what will happen the next few days. You can deactivate those privacy anomalies though.
