Lol. eBay does the same thing. It’s just retargeting. EBAY just does not have the same budget as Amazon or they would do the same.
But yeah. They could do a better job of not showing stuff you already bought. Problem is that the data sets are huge and it needs to be passed between multiple systems in multiple companies. So there is a lag in identifying that you already bought that shit across many systems and you end up seeing that ad until then.
I am incognito always now. Logging in only when I have decided what to buy. Never do research while logged in or with non incognito window. Plus ad blocker. And never ever click on ads from any app.
Unfortunately that’s how ad tech works. They share/sell a lot of data behind the scenes.
The one that annoys me is that I get ads for things my wife has shopped for on her PC. So they are clearly doing more than cookie tracking.
Family/relationship information is mostly provided by facebook. Or, it might just simply be ip targeting.
I know, I hate Sponge Bob memes too.
are they even hearing our conversations....i see relevant ads :)
Fucking jellyfish...
Sex toys are the exception.
It even does it when you buy the damn thing
