2 people sharing same computer has amazing effects on those trackers. My YouTube recommendations used to be awesome to my interests till I was single, Now it's all polluted and mostly useless after I married. ;)
- discreditable 10y agoSame here. My recommendations used to be video games and tech. Now I'm seeing tons of cat videos and gardening.
- 0xdeadbeefbabe 10y agoMaybe youtube took a more expansive view of tech?
- georgeecollins 10y agoThe strange thing is sometimes I learn things about my wife from the ads that are served. Creepy.
- Scottn1 10y agoI know of a guy who found out his wife was seeking divorce weeks in advance because he started noticing divorce lawyer ads in his browsing! He eventually asked her if everything was ok and she came out with it. Crazy.

- noir_lord 10y agoNot sure if intentional but Google ran a TV campaign here which featured Incognito Mode as the ideal way to buy "Surprise Gifts" for your partner. "Surprise Gifts" mode pretty much immediately became a euphemism for "I'm going to watch porn" here.
