Is it just poor, old DonDiego, . . .

. . . or is everyone showing an advertisement for brassieres between the comments ?

Oh, Don, are the bots reading your mind?  LOL

No brassiere ads.  The closest (female-related) ads I've seen might be the plethora of those for overactive bladder remedies.  I have been fortunate in never having suffered this condition, nor have I surfed the web for information on it.  Of course now that I have 'spoken' of OAB here, I will likely start to be doubly bombarded.  I will report back on this thread.

Hmm, . . . for the record poor old DonDiego supposes he is more likely to require an overactive bladder remedy than a brassiere.

 Of course, as the years go on he may be mistaken.

Most of the ads I see here are in Dutch, Japanese or German and that is the way I like it. 

Obviously, every set of ads is different according to what Google, in its awesome wisdom, thinks the recipient will be most interested in.

I am still mystified by being bombarded by first, ads urging me to join Kill All Hispanics and other hate groups, then ads touting the miraculous healing qualities of a brand of earwax remover, illustrated by an enticing photo of someone holding up a stick smeared with used earwax. I do not recall ever saying anything, in an email or a forum post, like "I'm gonna go shoot me some Mexicans as soon as I get all this dang earwax out."

KevinLewis opines :

"I do not recall ever saying anything, in an email or a forum post, like 'I'm gonna go shoot me some Mexicans as soon as I get all this dang earwax out.' "

A-Ha !

Now Kevin Lewis has written it on the internets.  DonDiego opines this is clear authentication of the 'bot's original opinion.

The bots may be clever enough to decipher the bastardized spellings of words used when taking tongue-in-cheek 'shots' at others.  "MESSKINS" is one that comes to mind.   Just sayin'.

Then the bots aren't clever enough to decipher context.

I'm more bothered by the presence of the bots than their skill sets, however. I'd like to read or view SOMETHING without being bombarded by advertising. But I guess the giant tech corporations are far too powerful for that to happen.

Well, . . . this is new.

Poor old DonDiego just had an ad pop-up for a local heating and air conditioning outfit.

These here electronic brains jes' keep gettin' smarter and smarter . . .

If/When they take over the world things might actually be better, . . . for them and the world anyway.

I for one welcome our new robot overlords. Google, Apple, and Facebook should rule the planet. Privacy is selfish. Sharing is caring. 

I hasten to add that the above statements are in no way, shape, or form an attempt to gain the favor of the impending world government and its data masters.
