    That1Guy my favorite type of ad is the one I get for a product that I have just purchased. I bought a pair of shoes online about a year ago from Amazon. Immediately afterwards, I went on Facebook and got an ad for the same pair of shoes. So stupid.

    IKR. I mean, I have adblock on virtually every website except KZread, but I never get ads that cater to me. Heck, if I see an ad that I even somewhat like, I won't skip or delete it because I WANT them to stop showing me ads for junk I hate. But despite that, Google still doesn't have any idea what I like.

    The scary thought of it is not actually the fact that they record your information. It's only being read by an algorithm and doesn't impact me in my everyday life. The problem is that all this information is being stored somewhere, which makes it possible for somebody to read. Not an algorithm, but a real person. Imagine a world, where the police can just go through every personal information of a suspect, read all their messages, searches and ads. It's a terrifying thought.

    Well I don't find it a big deal, the police is a public service, even if they find out about your pornography search history or other embarrassing information, they will just ignore it because they don't even know you personally, they just need the information about their case. Actually if accessing this information is useful for them i'm in, if you are an honest person who does nothing wrong you shouldn't worry about anything, even if the police find out some secrets like if you cheat on your wife/husband they will ignore this information unless it is useful for research

    When I was pregnant with my 3. child I didn't watch any pregnancy related stuff because I already got everything for my previous children and didn't need anything. Then I wrote in a private message to one friend in Facebook that I'm pregnant. But I didn't exactly write that I'm pregnant, I just wrote that we soon will be five. Next time I used the internet it was full with pregnancy and baby adds. Diapers, bibs, baby clothes, pregnancy vitamins etc... I didn't know if I should be impressed or scared.

Not as much as in the past, when weird ads popped up "Do you want to see naked women" (The answer is still no, I'm not lesbian, GOOGLE), but still. But the thing is this: as long as it only ads... Screw, I don't care from advertiment. Sure, sometimes I may enter them, but it never ends up in buying. The problem starts when it is used to other stuff...

People are getting the option but many I know refuse to take it because they're cynical about the capitalist schemes to make more money - those same people will unplug and damn near throw out every electronic in their house after watching an Edward Snowden documentary.

    Enablingbuzz I may be misinformed so whatever you find, let me know (I'll do some searching of my own in the meantime). And I know of the spotify, and Pandora packages. Not much, but it doesn't advertise - which I assume means doesn't sell the data since you pay. Google has KZread Red that comes without ads with a monthly also with no ads. Realistically, KZread is run by Google so they'd probably use it anyway. To avoid the whole Facebook thing I'd imagine you can just stop using Facebook. However, I have only watched this one video and don't care much about anything I do on the internet being tracked by the government. The only thing that bothers me about ads is how long they take to load when my internet is slow. I have elementary knowledge of topic so I don't have much else to say. But I've been convinced that I should be somewhat concerned about this.

There are so many people using the internet that your data is just there to represent a group of people with the same interests and nothing more, they don't have any reason to spy on you. Also, corporation and government have their own network to transfer informations and doesn't have to send email through internet services like Yahoo or Google.

If anyone honestly thinks that KZread wouldn't charge $9.99 a month clearly is too retarded to function considering KZread Red. How much would Gmail cost? $5.99 a month? What about access to the search engine? another $5.99, not to mention that's only google, you would also have to pay out to FaceBook, Twitter, etc., etc.. The cost of your data being safe is a lot higher than $12, and like you said, that's not even a guarantee.

That is ridiculous and no one would go for it. Plus, google would earn a lot of goodwill if they let you pay for their service instead, which will be a lot better and more profitable for them than people using adblock (ublock origin) and anti-tracking addons (EFF's Privacy Badger) plus realistically it would probably be a part of your broadband package rather than something you purchase individually.

    Although, if they were paid then not everyone would go ahead to be on a single site (ex: Facebook). There could be many other choices that are based on different models. Or also there could be higher packages that include total privacy. By refusing to pay anything you also reject customer protection and allow them to do what they want. Paying isn't necessarily the solution but it gives more leeway to have actual solutions.

    Besides, they made a really bad comparison "your interests, your personality, your relationships, your privacy, those things are priceless, but you gave it away for just 12$" You didnt give it away, they are still priceless. Like a company selling the information you gave them about being interested in modeltrains will stop being an interest all of the sudden. All you get is a company trying to make you buy modeltrains from their shop instead of a different one. They buy the info they need. It's not like McDonalds wants to know what kind of car you own. They rather want to know when and where to advertise. If you take a daily scroll through facebook around dinnertime, you're going to end up getting ads from the highest bidder. It's quite simple actually. As for privacy: your data is being collected, by computers, then scanned for certain keywords and keyphrases, by computers, then are compared to your internet behaviour, by computers. Then the same computers make a small file with what you are interested in. Companies buying the info are actually buying in bulk based on interests and only need the names and links to accounts and IP. I'm not afraid of any company untill ads are specifically refering to things I did earlier, like "You think those clothes are too expensive in store X? Click here to get massive discounts."
