Wow.
Elon has a history of overpromising and underdelivering. Curious how much longer the market will let him get away with it….
Looks like a micropenis measuring contest. Trust me I would know I won gold
The creepy thing is Youtube would show me ads related to what I was tweeting about this past year.

warren, youtube datamines cookies and FF/Safari history.
I run a very tight debian ship over here, and I'll be doing something, and a day or half a day later, I'll get youtubes top videos showing up as ...
stuff i searched for on qwant.com, or even mentioned on mastodon..
That shouldn't be possible. It should get treated as a severe security bug, and YouTube should be sued for exploiting it.
I agree, in exacting specificity.
use ff developer mostly, and here's the vague, although definitive (i know what i saw) evidence over here.

i dont think this is correct. more likely it is just a tracking cookie used to build a profile of you whenever google assets are loaded.
ie, you watched some youtube videos, then went to twtiter, where another youtube video was shared, this is then added to a profile of your 'interests'.
either way, i recommend downloading ungoogled-chromium and only accessing google services (and nothing else) through that one browser.
I suspect they make use of your IP address, maybe browser fingerprinting as well. That way they may be able to track you without cookies and across browsers.
Elons right though. I’ve bought way too much shit off the gram and the ads on twitter are annoying as fuck
