I want penguins, please post some links, my cookies are giving me hideous dress ads.

Penguins would be much much better.

I missed the original thread & only just came across them - I kind of want a parking problem so I can have a penguin bollard of my own.

shewhowines · 09/03/2014 21:29

Just noticed one now. Made me laugh

you can set a lot of third party (advertising spy) cookies off using
www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices

it lists a lot, and you can choose to set all, some or none on or off. You may need to leave google on as they accumulate so much data about you from so many apps which might not work otherwise. google does have its own privacy policy which is deliberately designed to be difficult to understand and to use.

I've not had a penguin bollard ad for ages, but - lo! There is one on this thread. Hallo Penguin!

aufaniae · 09/03/2014 22:00

There are two threads about this!

I quite like the penguins actually, not sick of them just yet.

DitsyDonkey · 09/03/2014 22:03

They are following me ALL OVER THE NET....seriously I'm being stalked by penguin bollards Confused
