Control it Or Get Controlled
#This post is part of my 30 days writing challenge.
I have been cuddling my kindle a lot this weekend and I bought a whopping 15 books in seconds. Suddenly, I noticed this statement “Abdalrahman’s 2nd Kindle” which is true as I owned one before.
I reflected on that and I connected that with:
- The giant Target Store incident in which they accurately predicted that a woman is pregnant and started bombarding her with pregnancy products.
- How Spotify nails it when it suggests you a song; How YouTube manages to keep you spinning there for hours and get addicted to it; How Google and Facebook target you with relevant ads.
Believe it or not but big tech companies might understand you better than you do. My 2 precious halalas:
$ Be aware and know that you have the intuition and the power to control.
$$ Brother, Sister, dude & babe: There is nothing free and as the saying goes:
If you are not paying for the product, then you are the product
