- kayza 7y agoAs far as I can tell, this doesn’t reset the algorithm for YT recommendations for your account.
- tinus_hn 7y agoOr do not login to YouTube and use containers so you get a new profile often, or clean your cookies. It’s not that easy yet but proper browser support for regaining control is coming.
- chimi 7y agoI get similar videos recommended to me on computers I've never watched similar videos on before. They track you by more than your computer. I've had videos recommended to me on my computer that were interests of friends who had visited me at my house and watched youtube on their phones and the same has happened when I went to their house. I would be recommended videos within their set of interests. You really have no control over what google knows about you or who they think you are. you can't change browsers, computers, or even your location to get away from them.
