I agree. I have tested this by talking to my wife about topics that are strange enough to leave no doubt, and almost immediately the Google ads on the websites are about those topics (despite having the camera and microphone turned off).
Discussion
Yep, happened to my wife an I the other day with maps. We talked about an address, then my wife went to type it in to the maps app and withing a couple of characters it suggested the exact address we talked about.
I know it's not my tech spying, but you cant control others devices. There's always something listening (which is why nostr:nprofile1qqsgfhhxuemwtwm8kjk5uppv7uxtmp5pz4wm2dv59lxx5pfnsk98ysqpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7p9kx2h removes the mics physically from his devices)
Scary shit!
I think government control through microphones is going to be next
