ThugCheetah:I was just discussing this thing with my wife 2 days ago. After my daughter told me to replace her Aerosoft sandals, boom, the next morning I saw lots of different designs of aerosoft adverts on my Facebookpage. The other day, I was thinking of replacing my designers reading glasses, before you know it, that particular designer flooded my Facebook. |

ThugCheetah:Many people are dumb and they hardly pay attention to detail.... some are talking about algorithm and internet footprint. If only those blind fvcks can open their eyes and notice the pattern. They would see that phones nowadays can know what you're thinking. You don't even have to type anything just think about it and boom e go begin appear for your phone. There are some experiences I've had but the most obvious 1 is that of FB where I always like to stay hidden so I don't search for anybody,I don't send friend requests,I don't comment and I rarely like posts....but soon as I think about someone they will send notification for me to add the person....there's no way That is normal. Elon musk they say has recently created a device that can enable blind people to see, if that's possible then it's not far-fetched to think that there are devices that can connect to human mind. |

Adaptive predictive technology You spend time on your phone more than you realize. It has come to read your facial expressions using the phone camera no matter how subtle to predict what you are searching for. Another theory is that your smart phone is equipped with a wireless neural adapter that can actually scan your brain waves and no what you are thinking even before you even think of it. |

Just algorithm,it learns your interaction on the Internet,what you watch and how much attention to you give to it so it suggests similar content or not at random |

You may have searched for it on Google, TikTok, or another platform. Many of these apps track data from other apps, and we often leave digital footprints across various platforms we visit. It can even come from comments you post or videos you like and comment on. Most modern phones use these data to identify your preferences and send targeted adverts to you. Another reason could be psychological—perhaps you’ve seen those adverts before, but since they weren’t relevant to you at the time, you didn’t pay attention to them. Now that you need the product or service, they’ve become more noticeable to you. |

It tells you that there's A Power in charge of this universe and that the world is deeper than it seems. Though AI is trying to mimic the supernatural, there's a limit to what man or computer algorithms can ever comprehend. Chukwu OKike, dalu. Ose, degwo. Oluwa, eshe. Allah, nagode |

There is nothing scary there. You should know by now that your phone listens to you every time and they will use what you talked about to set advisement for you. You can switch it off in your google setting |
