Question

Well... I have a quick little question. I recently made a post asking about colorblindness, because I was afraid I was. Then, I started getting ads about colorblindness. How did this happen?

Answer 1

If you use Google, it monitors what you search and keywords you look at, then Google will market those advertisement to you. If you haven't noticed, OpenStudy uses Google Ads, so if the Bot finds keywords such as, "colorblindness," then it'll market certain ads to you.

Answer 2

Hm... well anyone interested in buying enchroma glasses? Supposedly they can make you see colors.

Answer 3

They have a ten percent discount.

Answer 4

Unfortunately I'm not colorblind, but if you have anything that gives me more swag with a ten percent discount, I am interested.

Answer 11

lmao this is pretty interesting
i didn't even notice it lol

Answer 12

Wait... if I google jetpacks... could ads for discounts on jetpacks appear??? Well I gotta try!

Answer 13

The A-Rated adverts come up for people that search for or go to A-Rated sites. Since many families use one login and one browser, all it takes is one person to do this and then the entire family gets the consequences.

There are ways to clear all that out too.
