I visited Jabra's website the other day, browsed a couple product pages and then left. Sure enough about 24 hours late I get an email with a subject like "Come check out some of these products you missed."

How the hell is that legal?

Once I had a call with company called ZoomInfo. This is exactly what they pitched to me - obtaining emails of our website visitors. Creepy AF, but I can easily see why many companies would trade some creepiness in exchange for a revenue hike.

We all definitely underestimate how far marketing surveillance has gone.
