I'm sorry but how do you know it was the search website that sold information? It could as well be the first web site that she opened that happened to be on the same ad network as other related web sites she visited. Just guessing.
- ipsin 11y agoI agree with your point, but to the user it can feel like a violation of privacy, and at that point it's not particularly important who's doing it. Whether it's the faceless search engine or the faceless retargeting company, the net result is that something you thought was personal and private feels less so.
