Tracking cookies. It's a pretty simple technology really. Use in-private/incognito mode, and uBlock, problem solved.So how is that when I search for say a pressure washer, all of a sudden I am inundated with pressure washer ads? Why aren't they sending out pressure washer ads to everyone at a frequency that matches how often pressure washers are searched for? How do these fake warranty companies know that I own a relatively new car? The year and the model of it? They are tracking us at an individual level, and its actually pretty clear if you're paying attention.
And sure, they don't care about who you are as a person, but like capital one, "Whats in your wallet"?
