Clever yes but I also find it very annoying when I've Googled something like I did the other week, a website for the Woodland Trust which I found and posted on here. The next time I checked my Facebook page, about a week later, there was a 'Person you may know' and it was a person from that organisation. I know that as I used to liaise with her when working on a magazine I produced before retiring. I know Google is where the information originated as I was on OFF only then plus Google and it was a week later that I was on Facebook, that is roughly the intervals I am on there.
I didn't know Google was in any way connected with Facebook, perhaps it is? Either that or information is being collected by Google which then somehow appears on Facebook.

You can go incognito on google. But you'd have to switch a smartphone off to stop it spying or maybe even take the battery out.

You have to stop reading too much, or you will forget the basics.

I think it's been listening to mine and dad's convo Annie, that is what's concerning. I don't like it at all
