Paranoia or bigbrother?

[Fireball]

M, what I find the scariest is that the sandals I picked up and looked at was at a big shoe shop with all sorts of shoes for men and women.
The hiking boots I looked at was in a Kathmandu store. Ebay could have tried to promote anything from them stores, but the next morning they were advertising about 5 different pairs of sandals and about 5 different pairs of hiking boots. I can understand the wifi/gps picking my location in the shops themselves and trying to intelligently promote items for me to buy. But they knew exactly what I was looking at! It might've been some fluke  Not sure what else to say without sounding like a tinfoiler...

Next time you go to the mall, either leave your cell phone at home or wrap it in aluminum foil and take it with you, to see what happens. One layer of aluminum foil will pretty effectively block your phone from hooking up with the nearest tower, the slut.
