I've been using "DuckDuckGo' as search engine for a year and notice no extraneous ad targeting aimed at me.


You aren't getting the "RUSSIAN TEENS WANT TO MEET YOU" offers? Huh

You can put the domains that serve ads in your hosts file. Then even with adblockers disabled the ads still won't display. Just open the hosts file with a text editor and enter 127.0.0.1 as the IP address, press TAB, and enter the domain name. Should look like this:
127.0.0.1     ad.doubleclick.net

127.0.0.1 is a loopback address, which is your own pc. You can put the domains that serve ads in your hosts file. When a page calls for an ad from doubleclick, your pc says "sure thing boss" but it looks for it on your own pc instead of going to doubleclick to fetch the ad.
You will never see another ad from doubleclick.net again. My hosts file has well over 10,000 entries now. I forget that the web even has ads until I see someone else open a browser.

LOL!  Consider that some quantum and Astro physicists theorize that the universe (including us) is a simulation.

1. Why is the gravitational constant exactly the right value for the universe to not collapse or fling apart too fast for earth and our solar system to exist?  

B. How have atoms from distant stars combined to form you as a conscious being?

Third:  “do you think that is air you are breathing?”  
Welcome to the matrix!  Now that is spooky!  Shocked Grin

Man did I get a weird message today on my puter........

Since this domain is NOT secure, I guess they phished me outta here.

It said do to a ordering mistake, that they had too much product, and they had to move it out a ridiculously low price, even losing money, yada,yada, yada.....

OK, I admit, I wuz piqued a wee bit.

And when they said the product was motorcycles.....mercy, all that was left, was guiding me into the net, then over the rail and into the boat.

It was a really nice looking graohic, I was almost in the net.....

I saw some text, it said it was a gas single cylinder  motor......WHAT  Shocked

Do they think I am that stupid.......?????

Who in there right mind would ever build, much less ride, a one piston pony  Angry

Yeah, you gotta watch this stuff that comes outta cyberland, they must think everyone just falls off the turnip truck!   Tongue
