I am constantly creeped out by how well Amazon markets things to me.
There are two types of recommendations I get from Amazon though. The first is ads I see on sites like Facebook and are things I would never look up, but I'm also curious if that is part of their strategy. I get ads on facebook for things like a unicycle that is motorized and can go like 35mph. Half the time I end up clicking on these insane ads just to read reviews or the description.
The on site recommendations work very well for me though (they know I love woodworking and Cooking/Kitchen stuff).
I'm curious if the outrageous ads are to get you on site, then the targeted on-site ads are to actually get you to buy things?
