I have a friend who mentioned this too and he’s adamant it’s possible

In for other people’s experiences

Dude this happened to me a few days ago

I finished watching master chef season 2

Literally as the credits role I pick up my phone because I want to Google what happened to the winner of masterchef, I like to see if they actually went on to be in the food industry.

I pick up my phone and type "where is ma"

Thr auto correct fills in the rest with the season number and name of the winner of that season

Lol wtffff

this is retargeting ad, not anything wizardry tbh

all the cookies and data are linked together inside ur device and the algorithm already knows a bunch of people searched for what you searched for after watching the show

it's the chit u think about in ur head and never type or say anything to a device and all of a sudden the chit pops up that is magical

I tried thinking it might be coincidence but it's happening wayyyyyy to often
