You go in and check for a present for a friend’s child, and then suddenly your whole phone is filled with baby stuff. Or you look at a trip to Paris and there are hotels and romantic weekends in abundance.

But if you are an Android user, you can from now on stop “big brother” and avoid being told about your interests – or non-interests.
