Google basically uses the same tricks "mind readers" do except they have a lot more information. They don't need to read your thoughts or listen in to your conversations. If you start looking at cribs online they're going to send you ads breast pumps in a few months followed by baby food makers 6 months later.

That doesn't scare me, because I know full well that neuroscience is nowhere near advanced enough to read minds.

Neuroscience, not yet. Data science absolutely is though.
