        @monty6151 Ok.. this is fine, but how do I stop getting targeted ads based on things that I've only spoken about, and never typed on my PC or phone?

        If you use Google you are being stalked. People think Facebook is bad, they have NOTHING on Google. It's amazing because people just accept that because Google claims to be progressive, they must not be the evil giant, they are selling you to everyone with a shiny coin!

        Promoted ads are neat, like the ones I get from Lockheed Martin. The next time I get one, I'm going to post up pictures of the bomb made by Lockheed Martin that was dropped on a school bus in Yemen and the aftermath including the deaths of children.

        I block everything so the ads i get are weird. I don't know what i'd do with a desktop electron microscope, but now I kinda want one.

        Do you know what keeps following me around? The fact that you hired an editor who wants harm to come to me and my family because of our race.

        Ironically, I signed up for Google Fiber a month ago. I had at least 4 Google Fiber ads while I read that article.
