Dave Lodge is presenting: Siri, Are You Spying on Me?
“Have you ever wondered why you start seeing ads for dog food five minutes after telling your friend you’re considering adopting a dog, even though you don’t have one and all your searches have been about old computers?
If you believe popular opinion then your phone is sneakily eavesdropping on your conversations just to give out advertising. But is it? What does a far left militant group have to do with this? Should we take lessons from topics as far afield as TV detector vans and Furbies?
Can we prove this either way? And what happens if we try to prime advertising from a room full of people with smart phones?”
Tickets are sold out.
