[quote:Hypertiger:MV8yNDE0NjUwXzQxNTQyMDE1XzMwNTBDMUE2] http://www.internetsociety.org/internet/what-internet/history-internet/brief-history-internet-related-networks The Internet is master and you all are slaves. but that is negative. so you just feed the negatives through the just think/embrace positive ignore/reject negative equation. the embrace positive (lies and delusion/fantasy) ignore/reject negative (truth/reality) equation. Master/dealer becomes server While slave/addict becomes client You all were given the Internet for free at the start to get you all hooked. Now you are entangled in threads like flies in the world wide web of lies ruled by the horror of babble on. The instant you all connected to the Internet for the first time whenever you did. It was checkmate. If you think you can hide on the Internet...You have fallen in love with a lie you believe is Truth. A delusion you cherish. hook line and sinker. an you will fight to the death to protect what you cherish. committing suicide fighting to the death to remain asleep to enjoy the dream you are awake. In your matrix pod. [/quote]
Original Message
I am throwing this out there for thought and discussion. Has anyone had the experience where you have been discussing a topic - verbally - not something you have written an email about or Googled or used the computer on - and an AD comes up on Facebook that day (or maybe next day but usually same day) about the SAME TOPIC YOU HAVE BEEN DISCUSSING?
For example....you might be discussing something fairly unusual like....Filipino geneaology...and an ad will show up on Facebook for something directly related to that. And you only discussed it verbally with someone else in the house - NOT via the computer at all. Perhaps you've discussed something like oh....Smith Brothers cough drops (haven't seen them in an eon) and an ad will pop up on your Facebook that day for Smith Brothers.
I don't know how common this is and I don't see people discussing it but I wanted to raise the issue.
NOTICE YOUR FACEBOOK ADS IN THE FUTURE AND SEE IF THEY REFLECT ANY PRODUCTS OR TOPICS YOU'VE BEEN DISCUSSING RECENTLY.
My point? I think that they are actually listening to at least some of us via the computers and translating part of this information into advertising (that shows up on Facebook). We can guess where the rest goes. I don't know if Facebook has to be open for this to happen, or if it happens anyway. Now personally I NEVER use Facebook so I can't test it for myself. But I have been told this, so I figure you guys are a good test sample.
Be aware of your Facebook ads in the future and see if they reflect anything you've been discussing just verbally recently. this is NOT the same as Google ads that might reflect your email as they read all our emails anyway. This is LISTENING.
