A friend posted on Facebook within the past two weeks talking about how she was having a face to face conversation with a friend and, within hours, was receiving advertising based upon the content of the conversation. She had her phone with her but wasn't talking on it, texting, etc., or otherwise using it but it seemed clear to her the phone was "listening" to her so that target advertising could be initiated.
It seemed a bit crazy even for me - owner of over 100 tin foil hats. Until Thursday, that is. I had been thinking about getting a banner made for public music performances I have coming up. I had not discussed it with anyone, had not put the idea in any kind written form - email/text/notes, etc. It had only been an "idea in my mind". I stopped in (with my iPhone in my pocket) to a local printer and discussed what the banner might look like, how much it would cost, etc.
30 minutes later I arrived home and there was an email from Fedex Office with the Subject "Banners and posters starting at $5.97".
Other than the Lizard People reading my mind the only explanation I can come up with is that my phone's microphone picked up the face-to-face conversation, an algorithm analyzed the content, and the data was sold to Fedex so they could advertise to me - all within approximately thirty minutes.
The signs are everywhere how far the evildoers have veered off track in doing wrong. That's the bad news. The good news is more and more people are awakening every day and many of these people are doing what they can in ways big and small to change the world in positive ways.
