I’m not aware of any research that’s proven that phone are listening on conversations and serve ads based on that, just a bunch of anecdotal evidence. there has been some research a few years ago that proved the opposite, though.

Could you supply a link for that article? I would very much like to read it. Also, I would want it to be a recent article, to be believable for the current conversation we’re having.
Well, we all are just black boxing this, as we do not have access to these Corporation servers and what data they collect.
But you have to admit thar in my case at least Occam’s Razor would definitely point you in a certain direction.

this is the most recent one I know of.
it points me in the direction of you either being in the demographic currently targeted by the ad provider, or you having been shown the ad before without noticing it, and only paying attention after talking about the topic, and experiencing frequency illusion afterwards.

Gizmodo? 2018? Yikes.
Interesting enough, in that same article is one from Vice, which backs up what I’ve been stating and assuming.

it’s a summary of a paper posted here: recon.meddle.mobi/panoptispy/
do I get to say “Vice? 2018? Yikes.” now?
feel free to link more up-to-date research results.
