I wouldn’t be surprised if the internet is stalking you lol. It saves all your browsing history after all, even picking which ads you see and stuff based on what you like lol.

Yeah, it's stalking me and it's not even trying to disguise it!
At least it's based on an internet conversation.
There has been ocassions in which it was much more unwelcome. Such as those times in which all I could see was dressing gowns ads. So annoying.

I hear facebook has a monitoring system like that lol. It remembers the games you play and the apps you watch and it filters out the things you like and don’t like. So it stalks you when you do online searches and play games. So. Freaky. XD

I'll never forget watching this baking contest on tv and they mentioned an ingredient I'd never heard of so I went online to look it up and it was at the top of the list >_>
Never heard of it before.
Never searched for it before.
I heard it on tv and it was the first option on the search bar <<

See!
They know everything!
We may say we value our privacy, but hardly anything is private anymore.

This couple tested to see if their phones were listening to them by talking about cats.
They didn't own cats so they had no reason to look it up and stuff in the past.
Well, they started getting ads for cat food 8u
So their phones seemed to be listening to them and then gave them ads.
I used to cover up my webcams because I didn't want people spying on me.
People were like...saying I was being silly.
People can hack into webcams.
Who's silly now >8u
People can also hack into baby monitors <<

I've always covered webcams. I really don't use them for anything anyway.
In fact I've even had work-related video conferences... using my desktop computer, which does not even have a camera.
People does not need to see my face for that.

Yeah I always cover my webcams lol. I put a cute sticker over top of it lol. Most if not all laptops have built in webcams so i tend to be leery about them lol. XD
But gosh, the world is scary. Lol.
