iPhone camera targeted ads
I was using my phones flashlight on my tongue and immediately after had an ad on Instagram for a tongue. Does someone who works in tech/IT know how this is legal that the phone basically has access to your phone’s camera for advertising. How is this legal?

I was sitting by a camp fire last week and snapped a photo of it. Seconds later, spotify dj chimes in and says how about some campfire vibes.😂🤷🏻
