It works as well as google does except for maps, so far. Very strange how that feeling of somebody watching me all the time starts to slide away. Trouble is google has many partners that still track what you do but most of the knowledge based advertising starts to fade. You know the ones that pester you for months after you made a major purchase? I notice this more on the PC, when I get the ads suggesting something I searched for months ago. Although I do get some geo-location ads, like when I'm walking past a Starbucks. Link to comment

Or maybe just not be able to see later? Link to comment
