I'm pretty certain that they're already guessing as much about you as possible for targeted ads.
I watched a video today on my work computer for the first time, where I don’t have the ability to block the ads. Dear god. The litany of overhyped, lie-based AI dreck was traumatizing.
I watched a single motorcycle video on computer logged out of YouTube. All the related videos were rage bait right wing content. None related to motorcycles.
All part of the right-wing propaganda machine.
