Just had a look on the play store on my phone and in the "recommended for you" section appears almost every album that i listened to last night on youtube on the laptop! Damn they record and cross reference everything you do Now. Has anyone else noticed this, I've notice adverts on Facebook that match stuff the I've looked at on argos and gumtree and the like, but this is the first tinge I've noticed it in the playstore

You can alter settings on google to stop it. Check setting or help sections.

People call me nuts, but everyones online activity is logged and used for whatever means. Search your name on Google, and if your Fb account isn't private then your picture may be in the images.
