[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1836698, member: 396914"] Ian, what the topic is about is Medicare supplemental insurance, which is provided by private insurer's to cover what Medicare doesn't. So the texts are not from the Government or Medicare, but insurance companies. They buy the information from Google (and other sources) to sell to folks as they near the age to receive Medicare, and every November/December when the options open again. The government has all that data, but doesn't sell it. Google assembles it, applies analytics and forensics to it and sells it to the insurance companies. It is hard to be "hidden" today. [/QUOTE]
