Of course I am, but I'm okay with a more honest business model: when I type the words "wallaby porn" into their website, they'll show me ads from people who have bid on those words. (I assume there is porn for that, because there is porn for everything. I don't really want to know.) When I later search for "crosscut saws," they'll show me ads for saws, and not try to "retarget" me with wallaby porn, or mountain bikes, or whatever else I once browsed. They won't become a world-bestriding colossus, but they can make an honest living showing ads next to search results. I remember a company that used to do that. Name started with a "G".
