Well I'd assume it's kind of illegal monitor credit card purchases without clear consent.


Websites monitor traffic that comes to said site, websites track purchases through said site, once you become a customer you are placed in an advertising category, and then subjected to receiving ads from the company that you purchased from.

This isn't rocket science...

I assumed he was talking about instore purchases not online. Like he walked into best buy to buy a speaker without any prior online record of looking at speakers.
