The need to provide "safety"It’s sad and hilarious how we are literally being driven into fear and distrust. I wonder what the incentive is of that.

CleverThis is why I only communicate to others through a series of tin cans attached to strings.
It's how I "typed" this post up just now.
It does.Your phone keeps and inventory of the words you write so that the dictionary knows what to suggest for autocorrect. Being that YouTube is actual software on your phone, and not just a website you visit, it would not surprise me if the application has access to that inventory and uses it to suggest ads.
Carrier pigeons >>>Clever
I prefer to use smoke signals.
This is freaking me out. Is it possible it's just a coincidence?

If you were logged into Google on both computers, that could be it. It is some crazy shit, but been happening a while now.right now these tech devices are mostly just used to try to sell you shit. Fitbit and other health devices that are counting your steps for you can easily track where you've been.
Before long they'll be listening and seeing everything you do and say.
I was looking at some shoes on Amazon on my home computer and went to work the next day only to find an ad for those same shoes when I was checking our reddit (on a work computer). I didn't even log into reddit. I was just browsing but that search from Amazon followed me to work.
I hope my flip phone isn't spying on me...
Bruh... you ain't even lying with that.
Two nights ago I looked up a very specific supplement. Logged in to fbook afterwards and walla. The sponsored add was for exactly what I just googled previously.
It's bullshit, but I notice shit like this too. The other day I was cruising E-Bay looking at phones and skiing gear. Then I go on Facebook and the sponsored ads are the same model of phone and skis I was looking at. This was on my PC though. I don't do facebook on my phone. I have the sherdog app, but other than that I don't do any social media on my phone.
I know about cookies dude. They make you fat if you consume too many.Almost all the ads you see are from Google. It doesn't matter whether you are on a phone or PC, they will track and target your interests unless you turn off cookies.
How do people not know what cookies do in 2018?
