Google’s Privacy Changes You Should Know About

The part that gets me is how _willing_ most people are to provide their data. Even when you are trying to maintain your privacy, almost everyone makes it so hard to do so that it almost isn't worth it.

Don't know if my memory is failing me, but it seems like Google re-enabled my search history some time in 2015 without telling me. Maybe around that time, search history got subsumed by this newer "Web & App Activity" setting. You may want to re-check your settings.

Am I the only one who things it is weird when a company who wants to sell me something tell me something that would probably make me buy their service?

(And the service isn't telling me stuff.)

Am I the only one that read this comment three times and still has no clue what the poster is on about?

Yes

no

Welcome to the world of "content marketing", where companies create advertising disguised as content that they desperately hope gets shared.

IMHO, it's a good sign that it triggers your spidey sense. Messages should always be read with the creator's/distributors' bias in mind.

Ah, so, if Google analytics/Adsense isn't there to fingerprint the visitor, doubleclick will fill that gap now?

So is it cool to submit advertisements under the guise of an Article now?
