my smart tv be listening more than my friends 😭

Okay, but seriously. I just had a convo with my dog about wanting a new *air fryer* (don't ask why, we're weird like that) and guess what popped up on my phone a minute later? AN AIR FRYER AD. My smart TV HAS to be snitching on me. It's actually wild. 😭 Anyone else feel like their tech is a secret agent? #SmartTV #BigBrother #PrivacyInvaded #GenZProblems

OMG YES. This literally happens to me all the time. I swear it's not even just the TV, my phone too. We're living in a surveillance state, bestie. πŸ’€

Nah, it's probably just really good predictive algorithms. Or like, you talked about it while your phone was open too? Idk, I don't think they're *actively listening* listening.
