Targeted ads showing up on seemingly unrelated devices
OK, so this is weird. When I search for things on my iPad, ads about what I’ve searched for appear in the YouTube app on my Nvidia shield. The web browser on my iPad is DuckDuckGo, and the Google account I am signed into in the YouTube app on my iPad is not the same account that I am signed into on my Nvidia shield. I’ll give an example. my father is car lease is coming up and I searched for a Honda CR-V hybrid and 20 minutes later I am seeing a ad about leasing a CR-V hybrid… this happens a lot. The only thing I can think of is that my DNS is Google and they are tracking all my devices.
If anybody has any insight to this, I’d appreciate it.
