My marijuana order is on the way in the mail?

Well, that's a new one! I had to click on this email, even though it was in my SPAM folder. What it yielded were three silly looking eggs that I could click on. Of course I bailed without clicking on the eggs. The headline in this SPAM email actually mentioned my "CBD order," not marijuana specifically. Maybe I got it because I was recently Googling the effects of CBD versus the effects of THC in marijuana. For the record, CBD is the ingredient in marijuana that has pain-reducing effects, while THC gets you "stoned." At the local dispensaries here in California (where recreational use of marijuana is legal under state law), you can get strains of marijuana that are high in THC and low in CBD, and vice versa. Have you received SPAM email that had "key words" in it reflecting Google searches you've recently done? Kind of scary, isn't it? The photo is of a fern plant from a hike I took. I don't have any marijuana pictures here.

I looked up pot and everyone wanted to sell me kitchenware.

I suppose the proper use of kitchenware could cause pain reduction as well.

If you search it, it will appear somewhere while you are online. You need to clear your cookies.

Yep anything I search for or research like you shows up everywhere. I think it is very scary that we are tracked like this.

It is eerie how I see spam from my searches too. Big Brother is watching.
