I'm pretty sure even the mics are listening to what we say since for years it's been happening that when I discuss something with my girlfriend ads about it start to show up. We don't even use WhatsApp, didn't search about the said company on Google or Facebook, nothing. We just discuss something about it with our phones on our side and suddently ads start showing up.
The fact they are spying on WhatsApp messages isn't really surprising.

I'd be very interested in seeing those studies and whether they match up.
