Pay phone or not, this is too close to the truth. They don’t just target people with ads for products (or recommendations for YouTube videos) similar to what they have looked at in the past. They also recommend stuff that they want you to be interested in, even though it may be completely opposite to what your real profile would suggest.
Last week McAfee scan quarantined a PUP. While I was answering the question to allow or quarantee, the phone rang and a recorded voice said my computer was sending emergency distress message and I should press one for Microsoft assistance. I don’t think so.

Mort, you’re missing the whole point of the internet if you’re looking at old biddies (unless that’s what you’re into).

Wait, wait, wait. Modern Internet service calls someone and he answer on a landline pay phone? Which fantasy is real here?

You will get more of what they know people want.
That cannot be good.

“oldbiddiesdoingyoga.com” is not a real site. I’ve checked several times.

Is this a complaint about the war or a complaint about the sale of his personal viewing habits or both.
