You might want to fact check that edit.

Same, plus clearing all cookies when closing the browser. Still, combining search tterms and IP is giving me pause.

This may or may not be illegal, depending on what the “this” is you’re agreeing to. As a simple example, if it is “you agree to functional cookies by continuing to use the site”, that’s fine. If it is “you agree to us scraping your computer and selling everything we find to China”, that is most definitely not legal, nor is refusing service if you don’t agree.

It’s a feature, not a bug.

Give them some time, they probably only recently heard about this newfangled search engine called Google.

I'm going to push back against everyone saying that the algorithm knows. While not unthinkable, I believe it is much more likely that it is a coincidence, and what you're experiencing is called the frequency illusion. Simply because your sexuality has been on your mind lately, you're more likely to notice things that remind you of it - not because those things are more prevalent but simply because you, subconsciously, pay more attention to them.

That said, privacy is important and you should definitely try to maintain it - e.g. use a private browser window in a fresh browser instance to research things related to sexuality.

One of the very very very few good features of macOS: cmd-click the title bar of a document window to pop up a window with the document location.

It does not work on Microsoft’s products on macOS though.
