be careful what you say.
saw an paid advert for a new mattress, about being the product of the year..... my comments related to who voted it, how many were paid to vote and other comments along those lines. 30 minutes later I have over 20 different paid adds for bloody mattresses. ![]()

So did you buy it?
![]() Its not just FB. A lot of platforms are doing it, its their main form of monetising. If you don't edit your settings, then things likes your search history and chats will be used to feed you ads they think you want to see. FB use to have an option that allows you to select "don't track, just send me random ads instead", not sure if its still there. Mainly use FB for marketplace and to organise events. I stay away from commenting on posts not made by people I know.

But you remind me of my Dad. His Facebook is logged in on the Chrome browser on the computer. The same computer and browser I use to do all my work and research on. Whatever I look for today he is bombarded with tomorrow. When he gets home he says "got all this sh*t today. Didn't look for it. Where did it come from?" ![]() |

This is why I only click on ads for swimwear and lingerie. Beat them at their own game.

But the best was, so in the late 90s, early 2000s at school in the library we had computers and individual logins. So there was net nanny but one bloke worked out a sort of work around. That was the image search on the yahoo. So these days this would be considered bullying, but one girl he didnt get along with went to the bathroom but left the pc logged in. So this bloke looked up porn on the yahoo images on that pc, went and told the teacher and the girl got suspended for a week. Yes a complete dick move, but we all had a laugh. |
