Google Ads is relentlessly showing me men's thongs, and I can't tell it to stop unless I activate Personalized Ads. Why does this feel like Google is pressuring me to let them monitor my web activity?
I've never looked at men's thongs. Never cared for looking at men's thongs. I don't swing that way. Nothing on my computer about men's thongs. Unfortunately I'm now typing the words "men's thongs". But Google keeps putting men's thongs in front of my eyes. Every time I open Youtube, it's there. I scroll down to read comments, it's there. Mens thongs, mens thongs, mens thongs. I cant escape it!!!! FFFFFF! 20 years of being online without turning on Personalized Ads. Is this Google's way of forcing me to finally give in to Personalized Ads???
