Keep an eye on ads, showing up in your Facebook account – soon you may notice a mysterious trend. You may see ads about items, which were searched about in a different tab of same browser.
I have personally seen this occurring for a Philips product, an exact model of a laptop battery and just now stumbled upon Asana’s ad mentioned below.
- Is Facebook somehow able to access contents being searched about in a browser? or
- Are companies like Google, Mozilla selling such user information to Facebook?
Whatever the case may be, some people may see it as a cool feature; others may consider it a violation of their privacy.
