If you have a Google account, have a look at this control tool.

Well they're certainly keeping track of me. I use Amazon a lot and Amazon keeps track of me too. Wonder if they find me interesting ...

Not surprising.

Just don't use the words plutonium in any of your google searched,
or the FBI might pay you a visit.

I normally search with DuckDuckGo so not much to look at but still a handy tool. If you have a Google account you can adjust your settings in the Privacy Checkup.

I like watching UFO and conspiracy videos. lol

Man, I wonder what kind of nut they think I am? lol

Don't use Google search; usually use DuckDuckgo. Also use IXQuick on occasion. :)

I search with Startpage to get Google results anonymously and Ixquick for alternative search results.

Wow, I am so very boring, lol. I will say it can be handy if you are looking for a site that you can't remember but want to return to.

Went back to revisit this, pretty much my current favorite cover song although the band itself is not my type of music.
