I wonder if she also did a Google search for the same genre and if this is why she was retargeted.
- ImJamal 2y agoShe did. This seems like a complaint about getting personalized ads. > Dudley said she typically listens to 30 to 40 audiobooks a month, most of which are fiction. "I listen to the books on my iPhone and often search for and check out books there too," she said.

- jrmg 2y agoI’m a little skeptical of this story - but that quote is not evidence that she used a search engine. She could mean searching and checking out books in the library apps or on the library web site.
- ImJamal 2y agoIt is possible. Apple does have an ad network so it is quite possible that this is just Apple logging searches in their apps and showing ads in other apps.

- Suppafly 2y agoThat's almost certainly what happened. It's the same thing that happens in all of these stories.
