Had a conversation with a computer nut friend not so long ago and he was talking about spyware put in phones to record product usage etc etc.


Lately I've noticed that after let's say ordering a certain brand of beer in a restaurant,whilst having my phone on me,that a day or two later I would start seeing promoted posts on the internet of that beer company ,its happened a few times with other products such as talking about phone insurance to a friend and promoted posts coming up about phone insurance afterwards.


Sorry for the drivel but has anyone else had any experience with things like this or is it tinfoil hat overload?
