Is Gmail (Google) sending you ads based on what’s is your emails?

Microsoft has a new campaign that says Google is looking at your Gmail emails, and based upon words contained in your emails, is delivering targeted advertising.

Apparently, Google is not denying this. Is this a big deal? It depends upon your views about privacy/advertising, etc.

Some would say that it’s better to receive ads that are of interest, while others argue that it’s an invasion of privacy.

If you’re uncomfortable with Google analyzing your Gmail, then consider switching to a vendor who does not. Microsoft claims it doesn’t with their online email service outlook.com
