The case you describe can be served with contextual ads, no need to know anything more than what I have searched for just now.
No history, no fingerprinting, no profile that follows me everywhere, that gets sold, stolen, triangulated and potentially used against me without me even even knowing.
Maybe I take human history too seriously. Maybe others are morally bankrupt and will try mental and moral somersaults to justify their stance. You judge.
- speleding 3y agoI can think of many searches that do not at all make clear which ads I would find interesting. I don't think anybody is claiming you should be tracked against your will. The more interesting question is if we should force everybody to oppose tracking, which is what's happening now, with the consequence of less relevant ads being shown. I don't work for Google, I'm just annoyed that the ads I'm forced to watch are getting less and less relevant as a consequence of (well intentioned) privacy measures.
