      Do you mean by that that it changed what ads were shown to you over time? As in it changed your profile? Curious as to the impact it has :)

        Random things I never saw on the page. Some of the ads I did see were foreign. It had a effect but it also at the time loaded the browser up enough I finally got rid of it.
