What really breaks the suspension of disbelief in this reality of ours is that fucking advertising is the most privacy invasive activity in the world. Seriously, even George Orwell would call bullshit on that.
Ads know your profile better than yourself. It's telling you you're a cheap bastard who won't actually buy popcorn at the movies, making the theater run at a loss.
