The red flag of my detector instantly waved furiously.

Ain’t no way to avoid being sucked into Verizon's Oath.

Something disgusting, dirty, and deeply intrusive is happening.

Verizon's OATH is a consortium of 451 "marketing partners" engaged in massive snoop operations to steal every scintilla of data about you, your family, your children, friends, business associates, enemies, even your pets.

Up for grabs: your most intimate secrets, correspondence, searches, downloads, purchases, trysts, travels, travails and browsing.

Any and all Internet intercourse by and about you is captured and spread.

Your ever-expanding Oath dossier contains thousands of pages in myriad “clouds” available to anybody on the planet with cash.

A sampling of the scheme (Oath’s words)

• Ads are more effective when they are shown to people who are likely to be interested in the product or service advertised.

• Ads we select may be based on information we have collected or received about activities and interests on websites and apps used on your device and other associated devices.

• We also select ads to show you based on other information you provide or that we collect from other sources, such as your gender, age or location, searches you conduct, or what your friends or contacts recommend to you, apps on the device, or based on your other interests.

• We may use data that is available from public or commercial sources and combine it with other data we have collected or received about a user or the user’s device for these purposes

• If a user appears interested in non-sensitive, health-related topics (such as by visiting pages related to such a topic) an ad relevant to those interests may be displayed.

P.S. Compared to the 451 corporate co-conspirators below, Mark Zuckerberg is a Vienna Choir Boy.
