Oh thank-you Walmart (or your fav store)

Tue Mar 16, 2021 2:43 pm

I usually use the Chrome browser in Incognito mode to avoid getting saved cookies to diaper stuff. But sometimes however, the shopping cart doesn't work in that mode, so I have to use normal mode where cookies get added. This of course later leads to embarrassing ads.

Ya, you can tell them the ad is inappropriate/whatever but that doesn't take effect immediately and often that preference setting gets forgotten. Oh joy oh bliss! I could delete all cookies after or try to selectively delete them. What a hassle.

With this kind of "squealing" on me, I am caring less and less about who knows about my disability. It's difficult to keep a secret these days.

Yep, Me too. I was on NorthShore care and then every website I was on had an ad for them.

Delete cookies, delete search history ya da ya da. It is a pain in the butt to have happen but that is how they make extra cash so.

only browse with firefox and with ublock orgin and noscript plugins. never see ads on any site .
also firefox has great 3rd party cookie and tracking blocking by default. so good I never even
have youtube videos with any interruptions and ads . no ads on Facebag twatter or anything similar.

I suggest giving the owner of Northshore some direct feedback.
I think the Alan guy owns the company.
I totally agree their embarrassing pop-up ads are intrusive and very annoying.

I need to use Chrome for my work but you did give me an idea. :idea:

Since I use Macs, I could use Safari for problem shopping carts. It is already installed and can be cookie polluted as much as it wants. I otherwise never use Safari at work.
