CA DMV selling our information

[Tank]

aside from the obvious ($$$), why is this happening, and why is allowed? and what can we do to put an end to this? this is BS.

Every major company is selling our data. Why not the government, too?

[Adam]

It just means more targeted ads. I'd hate to use Tank's browser. IMPOSSIBLE BURGER and BEYOND LASAGANA on every website

[Brandon]

Yeah, this is the norm. From browser history to selling our credit report data. I'm more surprised they made a news article out of it.

The only ones that trip me out are the ones where Adam and I talk personally about butt plugs and the next time I'm on FB or Gmail the sponsored ads are for the biggest butt plug company in the US.

For real. You can talk about Toyota Camry belts with someone and then magically they are in your feed or even your Candy Crush app commercials. Shits a trip.

I saw an ad on Facebook for a pill that is claimed to cause an erection within ten seconds. Oral medications generally take 30 minutes to an hour to work. You don't absorb things through your digestive tract that quickly. I'm sure that some people will be taken in and buy it anyway. I presume that this doesn't work at all, let alone within seconds as the marketer claims.

A few weeks back we were looking at getting a new fridge so I checked around online.  On here I kept seeing an ad for a fridge with the same specifications after the first post of each thread and at first glance it looked like a post from someone else as they moved away from the big ads with pictures.

Billy Eppler keeps seeing Scott Broas ads when he's on line.
