Most of these sites have fine-print legal boiler-plate alluding to things
like this. Or not, if not, the guy might sue. But has no one noticed after
having dealt with a site, all of a sudden you get spammed by a half-dozen
other sites who could only have gotten say your email from the site you dealt
with? As for Dpreview and all other sites, I figure hundreds of little minion
are frantically going over data gleaned from dozens of cookies, desperately
trying to figure out how to sqeeze more money out of us.

It is cookies doing their thing.

The most common manifestation I see is with add supported sites such as
fujirumors.com when adds for a specific item, and vendor appear after I have
made a purchase, or search at Amazon, or B&H for the same item, and they try
to sell me something I have just bought.

For most sites I use an add blocker, but when I want to access the content of
the site, I just ignore the adds.


It is nothing more than RichA expressing his expected trashy self . I doubt
if there is a successful Internet retailer that doesn’t do the same thing.
If I order something from Amazon, I do not have to sign in, nor do I even
have to give them my credit card. What is strange about that is they are
using an old credit card that has expired. My new one has a different
security code, expiration date, and billing address
