those stupid drug commercials for any Pfizer drug are everywhere. We actually were so sick of hearing it while streaming (we don't pay for commercial free) that my husband looked at me, said out loud, "I'm sick of hearing about this medication, I've already had it, sheesh."

Then he winked at me and we waited. Low and behold, we've never seen that commercial again (and it had been EVERY commercial break for the last 3 weeks). Gotta love your phones/computers listening in on your convo's. Guess we might as well work the system when we can. -.-
Yep, can't tell you how many times I've told my husband in the car (older car so only things in there that COULD listen is our cell phones) about wanting to look into buying something that we normally wouldn't buy and the the next day Facebook, emails, and random text messages all about that item or service is popping up. I've always hated that and the tailor suggestions based on your previous searches/purchases. You'll never discover anything new if you always get the same type of stuff. Let ME determine what I would and would not like.
I do this too. I just yell at the Alexa when the interracial, gay males are kissing on the pier for some HIV drug... It's being shoved down our throats and I am TIRED of it!
My Roomba, which I do not use with their app, never even registered the thing. One day it kept going in and out of my office. Annoyed, I shouted at it (without thinking) “what is the matter with you? I’ve already moved you out of there twice!” Immediately it spun around and left the area. Creepy? You bet.
Yep, they listen all right. I don't have a smart phone, smart tv, or smart anything else and you couldn't pay me a million dollars to own one of those stupid Alexa things. No way. I love my dumb house!
And here I thought my brother wore a tinfoil hat for canceling his TV service when they went to voice activated controls only. I’ve since learned how smart that was.
I wouldn’t have done the Roomba but I’m lazy and had a German shepherd for 13 years.
In California the radio will play an ad entirely in Spanish, then immediately after that it plays the same ad in English. They're really pushing things lately, but especially going after the Spanish speakers because I think a lot of them have been refusing the vaxxes. Many Hispanics were also strong Trump supporters, interestingly.

Wow, hadn't thought of trying this ha ha. Still scary though.

Get rid of Alexa.
