I was looking at nursing homes and I was just googling their locations. Suddenly I was inundated with adds about senior care. Hell I was looking for a job! So that could be bots, no? Because it did not figure out why I was looking at those sites.

Similar but different. What you experienced was the advertising engines themselves. Everywhere you go that involves Google (including here on FR) or other such including Twitter (being the most + outrageously etc.) see what you're doing, what you look at when you interact with their things, etc. Then they use that for targeted advertising. The tokens that are generated i.e. representation of your likes + interests are invaluable - it's the digital equivalent of identifying candidates for a (snail) mail campaign. But in this case we're talking about programs (bots) that actually scour content on Twitter, etc., and then generate "responses". This is what the (actual) Russians charged by Mueller were doing; but in this case the suggestion has been that Google actually deploys an army of such bots to generate (FAKE) "comments" for "discussion" and direct attention, etc.

The 4chan and 8chan people should scare the hell out of the goog/fb/twits of the world.

WOW! Thanks Steven. I am not techy. I guess I suspected as much when according to the trends. Hillary was going to crush PDJT! Then it didn’t happen. Good to know how this works.

On Flynn ... has anyone done a facial feature comparison of the rally wig guy to Gen Flynn’s wiki pic? Also of note the deeply tanned face, but white hands (holding the pic of a white van).

If Flynn is to be/has been cleared of charges, is it possible he would find a way to make mention of that?
