You're not getting it.... Your searches most always tag you someway or other even by blocking ads, locations, preferences etc..

Welcome to the internet*

Got a HOME phone call today from a rival phone company after online searching for a new CELL phone... I gave no info online... but my searching was back tracked to my home and other ways based on my providers (and I used several)

The whole cookie thing is redundant. I bought a computer. So now Google ads from amazon computers. Yeah. Like I'm about to buy another one.

You search something. You get ads for it.
