Amazon seems to be annoying in this area. I look at a product out of curiosity. Get stuck seeing the same product ads for days everywhere including FB, etc.

- 13of40 10y agoNot 100% sure it was Amazon, but a month or two ago I actually got a physical junk mail letter after looking up a brand of dog treat online. (I don't have a dog, it was a random question I had about it.). I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. You have to expect that nowadays every time you get online there's basically an AI sitting on the other side taking notes.
- shiift 10y agoAmazon uses your Amazon history to target Amazon ads to your interests. That's not the same thing as giving your Amazon account information to a third party.
