> I guess I would've thought that Google would drop incognito mode requests and not use them for ad targeting How would that work without unmasking the use of incognito mode?

If you flag your interest in $THING on the internet to $SITE, then $SITE will try to show ads for $THING to your roomates, kids, grandparents, etc... |
