May 22, 20206 yr I normally use another browser but w/ways doesn't like it, stops the back/forward function and manually typing page numbers gets tiresome. Anyway, chrome has just hazarded a guess (based on my past activity - location's switched off) that I'm in Maltby-De-La-Marsh... I presume this is because I typed "quaint village" in a post, or something more sinister? Anyway Google mind your own fucking business you nonce. And take that slag Alexa with you.

May 22, 20206 yr Author Stevie B I think has a story about that... Sommat about dog beds or kennels? You might as well have some Chinese spy sat wanking on the edge of the bed bed as have one of those google/amazon dot type things. Just so one can act the twat doing voice commands. I gave one a voice command, once, it did know what "fucking shut up you cunt" meant tho'.

However, you do start to wonder. Anyway, once this contract has ended, hauwei can get fucked.
May 22, 20206 yr We got bought an Alexa for Christmas. Mrs said she needed a new makeup brush one day. went on the sky sports app and the adverts were promoting makeup brushes Then the Mrs had emails about makeup brushes I keep saying Jennifer Lawrence sit on my face but nothing yet
May 22, 20206 yr Author I've got a Huawei Homefi at home, which can also come with me to my pied-a-terre and I've taken to slipping the SIM out and into the pebble Huawei mifi from a previous contract when I'm out and about. Pay £6 monthly now for calls (Giffgaff) as my sim is always on data (£21.94). For that price Toby The Jap and Charlie fucking Chan can think I'm a perfume drinking Maltby resident. Where is that anyway?
May 22, 20206 yr Dunno, never heard of it. Rudy- we need a super complaint and take them to court. Might not get Jenifer, but enough compo for a top line brass.

May 22, 20206 yr Author I had a Samsung with two and a Wileyfox once (kill phones at will - my third this year already) - more trouble than they're worth, neither SIM slots fucking work properly when there's two in. I liked that Wileyfox, I was a little worse for wear coming back from the Norwich at home debacle, had got some provisions at Sainsburys and was waiting for a taxi home, some smack head brass asked to use it (the phone - my penis had gone home already at this point) - I thought 'never judge a book' and let her...she did that 'walking away for privacy thing' then jumped in some shitty g-man dealers BMW and screeched off. Probably thought she'd copped for an iPhone X or sommat, not one from Sainsburys for about £100. My mate: "what happened to your phone?" Me: "I lent it to a brass and she fucked off with it..." Him: "Again?"
May 23, 20206 yr Went in a real ale and malt whisky bar in Llandudno 6months ago. I happened to mention The McCallan Single Malt as being my late father’s favourite. later that week Facebook’s targeted marketing was mostly about single malts. all I’d done was talk about it!

May 23, 20206 yr They are definitely listening in all the time. Think the story Youri mentions was the post office. Got worse recently. Looked at the couch and thought 'it's a fucking mess that', just a thought never said a word. Next advert was for a couch saver... Ended up buying it pissed up and it's shit.

May 23, 20206 yr We were talking at work about Marmite ( horrible stuff) and peanut butter (also horrible stuff) and some mentioned that you could now get Peanut Butter flavoured Marmite. Two hours later and I’m getting adverts for it on Facetube.
May 23, 20206 yr Quote youri's post sometimes it guesses where you are off of where the isp or phone company or summat is- heres one that gets mine wrong https://www.where-am-i.co/my-ip-location heres another thats also wrong , but not as wrong , https://ipcim.com/en/where/ the back forwards buttons not working , is a javascript or summat thing on the loaded page . i see this less with an adblocker installed, so wonder if its to do with places like ad barn doubleclick enforcing it on websites, thus adblockers dont allow it (the javascript that stops back working) to load. braves pretty good . firefox comes with a "facebook container" extension kind of preinstalled by default now. so theres things you can do. >adverts piss folk off autoplaying videos at full volume and size >people install adblockers >"muh industry makes no money" > closes down with bullet wounds in feet dunno what folk are supposed to do , but its kind of funny Edited May 23, 20206 yr by e2e4 typo
May 23, 20206 yr Just had a proper spying c*nts moment (although it's actually Facebook spying c*nts). 15 mins ago I was searching Google on my phone, looking for a horrific / large dog accessory to buy for a mate who's getting a highland terrier. He insisted on buying awkward, oversized gifts for my kids when they were born, which take over the house (a ball pit / basketball net and an indoor play tent were his efforts). I saw a bright baby blue indoor dog play tent which would ruin anyone's living room. Perfect. My wife has just shown me her Facebook page and on the news feed is the very same item. So Facebook is now tracking what I am looking at on Google and within 15 mins placing it on the news feed of my wife.

May 24, 20206 yr I wondered why the wife was so interested in the BBC when she doesn't even watch much TV 🤔😁
