Don’t forget WhatsApp is owned by Facebook too, so anything mentioned on there will spark some adverts.

Data - one of the most valuable assets today.

I honestly didn't know that until I remembered this thread.
Had a message from a mate this morning as he's booked a putting lesson with Phil Kenyon.
Facebook right now, an advert for Phil Kenyon putting lessons :eek:

I’ve never had this happen to me, it is possible that the way I use Google etc isn’t conducive to it as there isn’t a GI financially beneficial connection.

It is always really hard to determine if it is just coincidence or a real thing and if it’s something to worry about.

I have chatted to a few people who have lots of Amazon and Facebook stuff, basically everything they say is in range of a device, but said this never happens to them.

I have a feeling if it is happening it’s a combination of services used and privacy settings allowing it. Which would explain why some see it and others don’t.
