Does the lack of privacy these days annoy anyone else?

It’s just ridiculous the amount of information shared.

For example, back when I was taking guitar lessons my facebook suggested that I friend my guitar instructor. I have zero relation to him. No common friends, nothing. The only link they had was that I sent a couple text messages to him on my phone.

Another example, when I bought my last house, they offered friend suggestion of my realtor. Again, only text, phone calls and in person meetings. I didnt even have messenger on my phone at the time, but somehow they knew that I knew him.
And this was years ago. It’s much worse now I imagine.

What’s your opinion on this?

Mom and sister wanted to get crocs. I happened to overhear that. I got ad of Crocs next day.

Sister wanted to buy contact lenses and I got ad of contact lens cleaner on Amazon.

Many people claim apps don’t track you in such detail. But incidences seem eerie.

Hey @Om_Sadasiva . A lot of information is shared but I honestly think what your describing may be a symptom of your illness. No offense, but I dont think they are listening to us all when we talk in person. I do believe they spy on us through apps and stuff but I dont think they can hear us talking to one another. I used to think that when I was psychotic, though. Again, no offense, but I dont want anyone triggered.

Hey… I think this is again making false connections. I suppose its possible that it could happen if you are carrying a phone but I dont think its likely. Maybe I should close this thread. It may be triggering.

I’m going to go ahead and close. Its headed in a triggering direction.

When we install apps,
we give permission to apps
to use our microphone

right. if you are carrying your phone its possible. but exactly how many people do you think these companies have working for them that they are going to spy on all the public every conversation?

Its too much data and too many people.

An example of this kind of thing is, I just went down to use the bathroom and Micheal Jacksons “somebodies watching me” was on the radio. (my neice is here and listens to the radio while sleeping) If I were psychotic I would believe this was not a coincidence.

It really happened just now by the way. lol
