Privacy #2: Personal information traded for profit to your disadvantage (it’s worse than you might think)

This is one of those things I vaguely worry about in the back of my mind, but then I decide there's nothing I can do about it. I wonder what they are saying about me, thinking about me?

I get some very strange ads on Youtube and online that follow me and I have no interest in them. I wonder what sort of profile they used to decide those were the ads they would show me.

    Yeah, they are not always spot on! I check the other day what Facebook things I like and there were some weird suggestions in there. I'll share in my next article how to check this yourself. Thanks for the support @clemdane!
