I have a tool I use very occasionally for work.
This tool has been wrapped in a bag and kept in my van for a few years.
On Friday, I needed said tool, first time I’ve needed to use it in probably 4 years.
The next time I opened up my web browser on my phone, there was an advert at the top for the very tool I’d used an hour before.
How does that work? It’s far too specialised to be random. |  | | |  |

Had you been talking about the tool? Was your phone nearby? They are listening to you. All the time they are listening to you.
So that they can serve you relevant ads. |  |

See, I wondered that, but I was working on my own, and although I do sometimes chat to myself, I don’t remember saying ‘I must pop to the van and get that oil line suction pump’. [Post edited 4 Oct 2020 15:26]
