As we talked about in our class discussion, a simple google search can figure out so much about you. We see this in many different ways when it comes to ads and social media apps. People often feel as though they&#8217;re being listened to because they&#8217;ll see ads about something they were talking about last week. As well as the Alexa&#8217;s and Google Homes, which are actually listening 24\/7. It&#8217;s an interesting yet terrifying thing knowing that your actions are constantly being watched and recorded.
