As suggested in the comments on Reddit, there's another possible explanation for this -- someone else in the conversation does a search based on what you were talking about, clicks on a result that sends tracking data to Facebook, and then the ads are retargeted to you based on a shared public IP address.
- rickhanlonii 9y agoCould be shared IP or even just "target people located near people who are targets" since they have location data
- ceejayoz 9y agoThe last time I noticed this, it was a conversation between my wife and I, and I (we) poked around in her search history for that reason. Nothing that I could see, and it was within minutes of the conversation. All that said, I still lean towards confirmation bias.
