How to Stop Seeing Your Amazon Searches Everywhere
Rob Pegoraro (via Kirk McElhearn):
You can avoid this problem by doing your online shopping in a private-browsing or incognito-mode window. But it’s easy to forget to do that when you have 10 different pages open in tabs in your browser and you’re also switching between the Web, e-mail and other apps.
Instead, you can tell Amazon to stop sending you ads based on your shopping habits. To do that, visit amazon.com/adprefs or log into your Amazon account in a browser, click on your username in the top right corner of the page, and then click on the “Your advertising preferences” link.
You will, however, have to repeat this on each browser that you use for any Amazon shopping.
