Out of curiosity I installed the Google app on my Fire 8+ tablet (Android
 fork OS) and the Discovery search page looks pretty much the same as the
 Chrome browser. Google claims to make the articles interesting to me by
 monitoring my usage. Scary for the paranoid, huh.

  I had never used the 'Google' app, nor the 'Discover' part within
Chrome. This thread triggered me to try the 'Google' app and the funny
thing is that the kind of articles Google presents to me, seems to be
largely, but not solely, based of my activity on *Microsoft*'s *MSN* in
the *Edge* browser. So different company, different news platform and
different app/browser, but they seem to be 'linked' anyway. *Double*
scary for the paranoid! :-)
