Serious question.

Can someone tell me how algorithms work? Do they target my IP Address, or do they target me personally when I'm online. I understand the targeting by my IP Address, but how do they know it's me when I'm on my work computer?

Cookies will do the trick.

So how do I get rid of all the cookies?
@calicuz You vote Trump, and then use Brave Browser.

@calicuz You can use your web browser to clear all cookies. Cookies are browser specific, only those cookies which are stored within that browser will be deleted.

I seriously hope you people don't pay for those browsers. 😅

Not gonna lie, I have to delete cookies from my work computer, can I pull up all the cookies and delete mine, but not my employers?

@calicuz Yes you can, but that's tedious – there will be hundreds of cookies. You can either tell your browser to clear them all in one fell swoop, or to present a cookie list so you can delete them individually.

Thanks, I shall try. 😌
