Think about it, Google Maps is (I think) the biggest collection of map data and information on locations everywhere around the world, yet I don’t want an advertising company knowing that I just went to a fast food place.
YouTube is an endless trove of video content that anyone can contribute to, yet I’d much rather not give an advertiser information on every little interest that I have in video.
It’s so bad for you, but it’s so good.
Ah, I see what you’re saying, I get the same as you on the trending page as well. With that all in mind then it’s like you stated; it’s all about whatever is trending for whatever those reasons may be.
Guess the best anyone can do at this point is ignore the suggestions like you are doing or stop using the site?
