If at first you don't succeed...

It sounds like Google could have done a much better job announcing and explaining how the new system works. This is a definite improvement in privacy over the "cookie" standard in advertising. I don't know if turning this off just keeps you locked-in to using cookies, but it doesn't turn off identification like a lot of you seem to imply.

To those of you out there not using an adblocker: this new system eliminates the use of advertiser-based cookies. All your identification is based on a minimal number of categories based on your browsing history. It doesn't send your actual history to an advertiser, just some (5, I think?) topics that have held your interest within the last few weeks. I'm sure there's a list of these keywords sent to the ad-server so it can decide what to send. I don't really care what they are, because I'm in the next group.

To those of you out there using Firefox and/or an adblocker: carry on, nothing to see here. Keep promoting your favorite non-Chrome based browser and adblocker.

The ex did once. I came home and had to cover a basement window with plywood.

I'm sure that's fine. Most homes have unisex bathrooms.

because 4 doesn't exist...

...I suppose it could also be 10.

I was in Sweden for work some time ago, and we walked past a McDonald's advertisement. It was for a Mexican Burger.

My boss was Japanese, so we were on our way to a sushi restaurant.

Can I assume you're talking about the new ad system? I see a lot of concern over it, but no real explanations on why it's worse than the current cookie-based identification system. Can you enlighten me?
