    I'm wondering! Whenever a commercial comes on 8 out of 10 times it's a commercial for Trucking Companies especially Schneider but others as well. This happens primarily on CNN, FOX, and MSNBC (I like to listen to News). By the way I'm totally sick of the Zyppah commercials.
    Do these folks know I'm interested in the Trucking industry and are targeting specific ads to particular listeners as a result like in the movie Minority Report ? I wonder !

    I believe it's because the largest market of subscribers are truck drivers

    The sat radios have hidden cameras watching you. How else could they know you need dink enhancements and tax help in the same hour?

    This is correct .
    I get the trucking commercials too all the time.
    Wondering if you ever listen to the road dog trucking channel?
    Maybe they are tracking us from what channels we frequent.

    I only driver Trucks part time. The vast majority of the time I'm driving a Luxury Sedan. That is where I have the Sat Radio. I wonder if they know what I look at online with cookies and the like. HMMM
