Lumpydonut Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Cookies and text trackers. Kind of like a small ai hacker that tracks everything you do, but doesn't use it against you. Only to give you adds relevant to what you like.

When I was on evom forum I got turbo parts and evo crap adds all the time now I get audio and what not lol Quote 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer Pioneer DEH5100-UB 2 - P1S412 4 - Alpine SRS-600 Alpine MRP-M500 Monster 8g power/ground-1/0 Big 3 Soon to come: 2 - T1D212 RF T1500.1bdCP RF T500.4bd Mechman 220 amp alt Kinetik KHC1800 Hit me up if you need help with anything in the Tulsa Area.

Robert8252 Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Google ads usually try to show something related to what you're looking at. Just using random key words like "speaker", "rims", "radio", "truck", "Asian ass porn" and shows things similar to what you're already looking at....
