Eli5: Why does tiktok know when I’ve downloaded a new game on my PS5?

1.15K views

Downloaded Hunt: Showdown, and tiktok immediately started showing me videos of the game. Didn’t speak the name out loud, didn’t text about it to anyone, didn’t google anything about it. Does Sony share info with tiktok, or could it have recognized the soundtrack of the game through my mic or something?

Edit: the phone is never on the wifi where the console is, so it’s not that.

I’ve always wondered this when I play a game for the first time in 7 years and get a tiktok about it 5 seconds later.
