Your phone isn't secretly listening to you, but the truth is more disturbing

Here’s a simple experiment I ran and still works.

Back in the day there was a truly ghastly add for ear wax removal that showed up on YouTube in the UK.

In an experiment, and prank, I told two of my close friends about this, and how this horrid advert would kill my appetite when it came up.

And then I made it a point to repeat “ear wax removal” loudly several times.

Sure enough. A day later my dear friend messaged me with something on the lines of “I hate you”

Their phones were Android and iOS. I believe it was the Android user suffered.
