Could they have seen a testy interview that I taped on Glass? Wouldn\u2019t they have access to that data, the same way they have access to my Gmail account, to my search requests, to God knows what else? Were they spying on me? All interesting questions. But it doesn\u2019t look like I\u2019ll ever know the answer. Even weeks later, Dale hasn\u2019t responded. [Emphasis mine.]  Well\u2026you know what I think.  Here\u2019s a trick I learned from a friend who uses Google Voice with an Android phone.  Say \u201cMachu Picchu\u201d about 10 times while wearing Glass.  Then log into your Google account on your laptop and time how long it takes before travel ads for Peru start showing up. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>   <a href=\"http:\/\/musictechpolicy.wordpress.com\/2014\/04\/20\/did-google-flacks-use-a-journalists-glass-to-try-censoring-the-news\/\" >http:\/\/musictechpolicy.wordpress.com\/2014\/04\/20\/did-google-flacks-use-a-journalists-glass-to-try-censoring-the-news\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m very wary of online advertisement, as you may know.
