Reminds me of the time when Signal(the private messaging app) once tried to get ad data from Facebook and show it to users with a high degree of specificity eg “You got this ad because you’re a middle aged woman who enjoys kpop and loves reading about Christopher Nolan”

There are many theories about this, but the one I find most plausible is that the airlines sell the data to Lyft.

The UI has always seemed "off." I'll stick to Free Download Manager
