Does anyone else get hammered with ads for hookup sites? I’ve noticed that every time I start visiting sites or forums dealing with infidelity, my inbox fills up like crazy. It’s hilarious and infuriating at the same time. I guess I’d better invest in a VPN.

I don't. I'm accessing information and SI across multiple platforms at any given time. I use gmail and hardly ever see anything funky.

Might be in my spam folder

Yes! I block many email addresses every day, yet they find me again; and I've told H that every time I get another email about hookups or pornography, it pisses me off that I now have to be reminded of his behavior any time I look at my email.

My first name is androgynous, and I also get ads for ED treatments! Of course, I still have a hotmail account, which may be part of the problem.

I do have a gmail account, but really never use it.

So, I just checked my gmail junk folder. Some hookup sites, some ED ads (my first name is clearly female)

Gmail does a decent filtering job.

Yeah, I have been getting really explicit texts about ED supplements. And hookup sites.

This is irritating, yes, but I actually feel bad for remorseful former waywards who also receive this type of unrequested email/text… most especially if their betrayed spouse is monitoring their phone.

I’m sure that’s like a nightmare... another reason for their spouse not to trust them, but that particular reason being undeserved.

WhatsRight - true, I hadn't thought of that. Sometimes all you want is a break in the pain and then one of these idiotic emails shows up.

My wife's actually asked questions about the emails I've gotten. The irony isn't lost on me.
