    I mostly get ads for dick pills and VPNs. I hope they don't know something I am still unaware of.

    Last time I checked the profile they had on me, they thought I was likely a Democratic party member and likely actively involved in social issues. Haven't checked it for a couple of years though.

    Couldn't tell as most of her profile was BLM logos, but at least the hair wasn't purple.

    Haha, this seems like the general direction for males. They probably don't have enough info on you, the full spam AI hasn't been released in your region yet or whatever. Give it time, I really dig our robot shopping helpers.

    I just recently made an instagram account and I’ve noticed repeatedly that i get adds from shit I’ve only spoken about and not used a search engine for. It’s got to be from my iphone mic; however, certain chat apps might be involved as well.

    Last night I was using a program called discord to talk with an old friend. He talked about some dick pill he just popped because a lady friend was coming over. He also mentioned that he was starting to go bald.

    Today I’m scrolling through Instagram and the first two ads are for the very same dick pill and hair loss pills. I’ve never done a search on any of this shit.

    Has anyone else noticed something like this?
    They don't need to hear you speak. You don't even need to search for it yourself. If they can connect you to another person who has searched for such products, you may become a target for those ads.

    He deleted his insta/fb years ago. It’s possible that they linked us through discord, which is partnered with twitch, which is owned by amazon, which is connected to instagram ads.
