Google Knows More About Me than My Husband Does

It is a simple statement and it is absolutely true. My husband is kind, loving and wonderful. He really doesn’t know much about my daily life. He knows I work. He knows I write. He knows that I have errands to run. Occasionally he asks for details or chooses to go with me, but other then that the details simply don’t matter to him.

Tonight he was watching the news and they were talking about google was tracking my every move with my phone.  He was concerned. I am not concerned. I don’t really care if they know that I drove 22 miles to the grocery store. I don’t care if they are going to advertise items based on those searches. I assume no there is no privacy once you bring a phone or computer into your home. Even the television shows you watch gives people information. 

I admit, sometimes it is fun to manipulate the advertisements I am presented with. I admit I play a few games to see what new and interesting advertisements that I can view. 

Our culture has changed.
