Ad Block is your friend

giving that a try…thanks Brunhilda
Haven’t noticed with gCaptain particularly, but a lot of sites I go to, the banner ads seem to have some relation to what I’ve recently searched for or websites I’ve recently visited. Have you been shopping for underwear recently? Or looking at Playgirl online? On gCaptain the only banner ads that I’ve noticed are the ones for MPT and the occasional Chevy ad.

That’s a network ad that targets using cookies - often reflective of past search history. Just sayin…

watch it or I might remember you for pointy stick treatment in the future.
and seriously. I DO NOT want to be tracked by online advertisers no matter where I might have been online previously. I DO NOT LIKE THIS SHIT ONE BIT!

That’s funny, I figured you would be complaining about all the banner ads from www.nambla.org. or www.gothgirlsxxx.com…
Just admit you were lookin for new tighty whities. Geez
That’s how all Internet advertising works nowadays. It is what it is. There’s no expectation of privacy on the Internet. The only thing you can do is delete your temporary Internet files.

How do you think GCaptain makes any money? You’re certainly not paying them to read and post stuff. They survive on ads. No ads, no money for GCaptain, GCaptain disappears. Is that what you want?

I am all for maritime related advertising but not from these webad companies that intrusively use my browsing history to post banner ads for me.
btw, I hate tightie whities. I am a boxer brief man…
Fruit of the Loom to be precise
who here remembers when F. Murray Abraham was one of the grapes (can’t remember if it was the green or purple tho)?

I see no ads and I have been shoe shopping. Again what browser? I’m telling you, download an ad blocker plugin. I also disabled video autorun so I don’t get those annoying videos in the middle of an article I’m trying to read.
