>Let's be clear: the best targeted ads I will ever see are the ones I get from a search engine when it serves an ad for exactly the thing I was searching for....I don't know anybody who complains about this sort of ad.
This has actually nerfed search engines in my lifetime. It used to be a crawler returned as much as it could and you could search through the results; Now i get to only search through the big players who pay for their rankings.

Funny; i wonder how Google profiling handles me occasionally using Google as a spell check.
- ilovetux 8y ago> using Google as a spell check. I do that all the time!
- arkitaip 8y agoSame here. I sometimes use incognito mode if the spellchecking is... off pattern.
- cortic 8y agoI sometimes blank on words that sound the same, like typing through when i mean threw, and of course google won't correct it unless its in context, so i type something like 'i through a bomb' which corrects to threw, i know I'm on a watch list somewhere.
