If technology is so smart why am I inundated with adverts for the same product that I have just bought. If they know that I have been looking at certain items surely someone should be able to programme the system to recognise when a sofa, vacuum cleaner or similar has just been purchased and is therefore not likely to be bought again so soon.

It's probably because people set up the system. Humans are flawed.

Indeed. Having had obviously brand new windows installed, we still received double glazing leaflets.
We have an internet enabled oven. No idea what it does 😁
