Do You Think Our Phone Listen or is It Coincidence When Ads Appear ?

Yes every time on the temu app you have to give permission on your phone for it to use speaker so on mine it's not on alot of apps

100% they listen because sometimes it comes up with things that i’ve talked about but definitely never search for.

Not a coincidence ours phones listen to what we've got to say.

Does she have an Alexa? If yes it will be that, we were talking about dental implants once, the next thing I'm seeing ads , not once did I put anything into my phone regarding this subject

They do collect data from us, what we like, what we dislike, etc. Whether voice or text (websites, apps, and so on).

I have ads set to non-relevant ads and it works for me.

100% something is going on. It has happened to me a few times, been talking about something and lo and behold turns up online.

Yes I've noticed this too. It's really odd.

Yes they are selling your data if you choose to let them. I personally don't do that. This laptop I'm using only has a local account which isn't in my name and not linked to a email address so Windows actually runs faster as there is less software installed processing what I am doing and sending the data back to Microsoft. Windows nowadays prevents local accounts as much as possible and forces you to sign in to it but there are workarounds to still have a local account. No reason to give away your data for free especially when it slows down devices.
