Where to begin? Please check your first reply. That is where the attack came from. Some of us don’t derive self worth from the brand names of the appliances we use or sports team or whatever. My ipad, and I will spell it any way I damn well please, does precisely what I say it does. It tracks the items I check on at sites such as Amazon or Autotrader and when I visit other other sites that have ads such as drudge the items I have viewed at Amazon show up as ads on drudge or other sites I visit with ads. And no I don’t use google as my search engine. They are the Borg and Microsoft is close behind. What bothers me is the insulting and combative nature of your response. And in this you are not alone. You presume to know everything about me, my possessions, my character, etc because I “misspelled iPad.” Oh look auto correct fixed it. Then to top it off you call me a liar and a troll. The proliferation of posts of the type you sent, not the content rather the tone, drive people from is site. Some of which we may be able to win over to the conservative side. Think about this before you post quickly and angrily. And I will too. BTW, ipad is not the only word I can’t spell, there are thousands of words I can’t spell. Perhaps millions. Have a good day
You are attributing Cookies set by Google Ads on the websites you visit to your Apple iPad and blaming Apple for the way that the way that Google has made the Web Advertising work to benefit GOOGLE!
So, I apologize. Your post still was rife with red flags. . . and you were blaming your Apple iPad for something that happens on ANY device that is on the Internet. Don't blame the device and say that it is at fault for something you don't understand and doing it deliberately. If is not tracking you. AND you are wrong about not having GOOGLE on your devices. Google is ubiquitous if you are on the Internet. Google is the invader and the one who is "squealing" about what websites you visit. . . but NOT about your searches. It is picking up the ads on those sites.
Nuc, the only way to avoid this is to block cookies, browse with an "adblocker" plug-in, browse through a proxy server, or clear cookies and history after every website. Google's business model is to learn everything it can about you and sell that information to third parties, or sell you something for their advertisers. They even mine your emails that go through them.
Again, I apologize for mistaking you for a troll.
