I had a discussion about high-end coffee machines and looked one up on phone (not buying one!). Only FB app on phone is WhatsApp. Went on computer (guest mode on chromebook) to Facebok and I saw the very very very first high-end coffee maker ad in my life. Any plausible path?

I had been logged on my Facebook on the second computer. I literally have a Chromebook whose key purpose is for me to log on to Facebook in guest mode. (Part of my experiment in tracing these things). That computer has none of my accounts logged in. None. https://twitter.com/soupkitchen/status/1263623319946842113 …

I know some will think it's the microphone but that's implausible (only FB app on phone is Whatsapp and I think we'd know) and also really burdensome (they are going to transcribe conversations?) and also why, why, why? Illegal, big risk, not necessary.https://twitter.com/proteantimes/status/1263623698520477697?s=20 …

Perhaps a public-private partnership with the NSA microphones in your finger splint?
