I generally consider targeted ads to be relatively harmless, with one major recent exception: I'm starting to shop for an engagement ring, but since I live with my GF I have to do online research in Incognito mode so ads don't ruin what I hope to be a surprise someday.

Careful, 'incognito' mode doesn't store cookies, but it's not a VPN, or otherwise masking your IP address or location. (Obviously, it also doesn't stop tracking based on being logged into a Google account either for example, but I assume you thought of that!)
