I have to be careful about gift-shopping if DH would get on the computer after me!

It is very very weird. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/big-brother-is-watching-1#post-2464749 Wed, 17 Feb 2016 15:25:35 +0000 Adira 2464749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: I'm guessing FB and Google probably share data like that to direct ads at you, but I'm not sure how it works. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/big-brother-is-watching-1#post-2464742 Wed, 17 Feb 2016 15:21:31 +0000 Mamaof2 2464742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: FB, No but yes to google!</p> <p>Are google and FB connected? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/big-brother-is-watching-1#post-2464741 Wed, 17 Feb 2016 15:19:38 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2464741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually its when you've logged into your email or Facebook on both devices and it knows its "you" on both and carries the cookies forward.
