    Interesting thing is they could do this smartly. You buy a refrigerator, and Amazon could keep track of average replacement age of that product, then about the time it’s due to be replaced, start sending you ads for another. That is when they would be useful.

    Instead we get ads for the thing we just bought and I don’t understand why this practice continues. It can’t actually result in higher profits…right?
