My Google ads are getting strange.
What REALLY bugs me is searching for something, finding it at a decent price, buying it, and then for the next 6 months being bombarded with ads for the thing that you no longer want to purchase. I bought a new battery for my laptop and I shouldn't need another for a couple of years, but I keep getting ads for laptop batteries.I've noticed that if I watch videos on Youtube without logging out of Google first I get spam related to my video choices the next day.
I watched a clip from The Wolf of Wall Street (where he gets a job selling "Penny Stocks" and the next day, low and behold, spam related to investing in Penny Stocks.
Google most definitely is watching you . . . . ;-)

Just beat me to it!Who is going to be the first to mention adblockers?
Ooo, looks like it's me.
I buy dozens of bits for my bike. Do I see bike ads? No.
I buy all sorts of electronic and cables. Do I see ads for those? No.
But I buy one giant black dildo.....
I always thought they were called Giant propel`s rather than dildo , seem to be enough people riding themYou can get Giants in other colours.
