I'm laughing becase this privacy thing using Apple devices IS NOT TRUE, and it's the same as in other devices. My brother was using his iPhone yesterday to chat with me using Messages while I was using my MacBook Air. He wrote "I just got some machines to set a small home gym while we are in quarantine. I bought a Nordictrack, and a couple of benches and weights." He sent me screen caps from one of his purchases and the image was taken from the Amazon iPhone app. He did not send me the link for the product. This is the image (wasn't even the Nordictrack, by the way):
Today, I received an e-mail from Amazon stating "Based on your browsing history" and they were offering me a Nordictrack care kit. I didn't look for the product anywhere, not even on Safari or Chrome. We just talked about it. My Amazon browsing history has guitar pedal patch cables and some MIDI controllers, nothing else. It's all BS marketing.
I like their products and I'm not trying to bash Apple, but privacy on the net is achievable by no one. And we've known that since the 90s. Again, BS marketing.
EDIT: Added screen cap from the Messages window with the image and part of the chat.
