I've commented on the intrusive nature of Apps, Internet Browsers. they seem to be wired into our brains to know what we're thinking. Most of the time, it's fine, as it does make life easier, but I think this at the risk of us getting dumber. We need no longer think - the device does it for us.
Now here's the latest.

1. I have changed my shopping habits in that I shop at Checkers and as a result have communicated with their customer services via email
2. On my Samsung Edge S7, I have an app from Investing.com (no relation to Checkers)
3. I've had this app for about 3 months, Now whenever I start this app, I'm first presented with a local Checkers advert.

How this app made that connection I don't know !
