I just got an ad for a Porn Addiction app · 3:11am Nov 23rd, 2022
I don't even watch porn. I use ao3 for it.
JUST. Why???
Complexity and simplicity. I am a jack of all trades. All I ask for is an upvote and comment. Maybe a watch to?

Well, it depends on what you were looking at during this point in time. If you had gone onto any website, you may have had to accept cookies, which can be put onto your computer, but a third party could have gotten their hands on that information (basically harvesting the data from your computer via the cookies) to which you get said ads thrown at you.
Seriously, I may have just simplified it to a certain extent, but technology knows us more than we know ourselves.
Algorhythms do weird things sometimes. It's partly why I use adblockers.
