Hey Google --- I've got an extremely simple solution that your users will love and will make everyone's lives easier and better.

Forget all about targeted ads.

Simply base ads on context. When I'm on a web site that sells pet supplies, only show me ads for pet supplies. No tracking required.

See how simple this is? Life doesn't always need to be so complicated and underhanded.

Thank you and have a nice day.

This is also extremely practical and often more efficient. I don't how many times I see ads for X even several days after I finished shopping for and buying X.

Just another example of why targeted ads are dumb.
