Why do all the ads here and on Yahoo pertain to hair loss? Seriously - do they scan avatars or something?

Asked by zensky (13421points) January 6th, 2013

I swear I have never searched for any hair products as it does not interest me at all.

How does the bot “know”?

Perhaps they’re guessing your age based on your searches?
