Google's matrix must have me...I was reading about recovering from a prostatectomy and now I'm seeing ads for adult diapers.

I've never had a Facebook page or a Twitter account. This forum is pretty much it as far as my social networking goes. The ads pop up here too so the algorithms are everywhere.

I suspect any kind of serious pushback or effort to rein in the negative effects of social networking will be met with a counter-push that makes the resistance to COVID measures look like mild irritation.  Won't be long before we're seeing ads for assault guns and other liberty- minded merch.
