So I had a verbal conversation with a coworker yesterday and now I’m getting fed very specific ads. No possible way it’s accidental. I have most of the microphone access to apps limited, I have Google assistant turned off and no VPA setup in my home. I use a Oneplus 9 pro, does anyone have recommendations on how to further root cause this or just par for the course for using any standard android OS? Have other folks had similar experience after locking down their stock phones?

    They are probably just predictions based on the data the advertising companies gathered on you and you just happened to notice the ones that you only thought about.

      Even if it’s entirely random you’re bound to run into some spooky occurrences.
