Once in a rare while there's an ad which makes me want to buy something but I don't know if it's worth all the noise.

Something really sad is that sometimes you search for something you actually want to buy like, say, winter tire chains for your car... Then you end up buying them but for two weeks you keep getting ads: because the system has no way of knowing you actually now bought some at the petrol station down the street.

I run pi-hole now: works great and seems to at least take care of the worst offenders.

If you want to be informed of product suggestions you could sign up for a service like that.

I think we should ban all ads, but I would use such a service if it worked well.
