Serious question.

If you long into google on your accounts it will track you across everywhere its very invasive apple too.. everything is they keep leachy tabs on everything they can even listen to you in your car or via your tv remote.. anything connected to internet with a mic can be activated .. any device even your home cameras ..

Tracking pure and simple

Don't do illegal things!

If you sign in on your work computer they have your history🤷‍♀

They generally don't track IP address (or track it along with other elements, never alone, as it's pretty trivial to change and often is shared by multiple users - especially in case of mobile data providers).

What is usually tracked is cookies or super cookies, if you're on browser; essentially the first time you visit a site a unique ID is generated and passed to your browser, and every time you visit that site (first party), or another site that embeds parts of the original site (third party, think of all those "Share on FB" buttons you see scattered all over the internet) the original unique ID is sent back by your browser.

This behavior is needed, for instance, for authentication (when you login you're assigned a similar ID that is passed back by the browser with every next request, without requiring you to retype your credentials over and over) but unfortunately it works quite well for tracking you around too. You can mitigate the problem a bit by configuring the browser to forget all these identifiers any time it's closed, but even there, the moment you log back in to a service that tracks you they'll reassociate you to the ID you purged.

Cookies. Go to the settings and clear the cookies.

Cookies will do the trick.

By now they recognize your meanings and rank them according to helpfulness - was it helpful to DARPA? Does war and hatred naturally follow? Yes you disappeared because you were leftist, yes you are the entire population as conservatives.

when you got no idea, but want to sound like you do.
just say ...👇

A big part of that is opt-out laws. I think there's only four or five states that have it on the books. I'm in California and we have it. If you go to a website an 'opt out' page shows up. Sometimes it's automatic and I believe it's based on your IP. In essence it means you can't be targeted with ads and your info can't be sold.

so very simple. if on a work computer, all ip addresses are assigned to every computer, who ever is in charge can see everything done on every comp. so easy, your computer you use may be number 5. whatever, like, you didn;t know that, wow

I believe the IP address is determined by your WiFi network, so it’s the same regardless of device.

Can someone tell me how jazz rhythms work? 🤣

search entries..

It's almost always by account. So a youtube algorithm which decides which videos its going to show you is going to be "trained" by your account activity. Same deal with how SW determines its feed for you.

I don't see why someone would set someone up by IP address.

Lots of ways. If something is free you are the product. Meaning your behaviour and interactions on those sites creates an algorithm that then sends you targeted marketing mostly but sometimes is used for more sinister things.

And algorithm is just a sequence of operations to solve a particular problem in math or computers programming.

Several ways. They are able to identify you by keyboard habits, and how fast you type! Insanity.🤷‍♂

They're Satan😈 If you don't sign in,,maybe cookies??
