It's not. It shows ads based on other peoples interests or what they have talked about with me. It was about things that wouldn't be in my personal sphere of interests in general. Specific ride-sharing companies, specific speakers a friend bought. A random conversation about a specific and obscure topic I had with my wife... Lets just say that I'm pretty sure its not may brain going bonkers with pattern recognition here. |

Recently, we were visited by my sister-in-law. We ended up talking about a topic, say Topic X. Topic X _never_ comes up when I and my wife are alone; it is simply not a part of our life. We have been married for 15 years, without talking about it even once.
However, it did come up while talking with my s-i-l, and my Android phone was lying nearby. Minutes later, after my sister in law had left, I was presented a Topic X - related ad on YouTube.
It was displayed only once, I ignored it, and no Topic X - related ad was shown after that.
