In the last couple of months I have noticed an increasing trend of supplying me search results that are completely unrelated to the current query and tie back to my location or previous searches. I can say this with a high degree of certainty this is without a doubt beyond the 100th instance this has happened.
My browser is configured against tracking and fingerprinting (in fact all my devices are) which would make it fairly difficult to retain any data unless they are profiling me.
It’s not the fact that there are filler results that bothers me, after all there might not be results for everything we may possibly search.
It’s the fact that these are links to services which have a tie to my unique identifiers which I deliberately declined access to in all available ways!
