    As someone else put it, it’s for making sure your wife doesn’t get suspicious of the weird ads you’re getting, and when she checks the browser history it’s clean.

    Meanwhile Google, your ISP, and the NSA all know you’re looking at freaky old lady bondage porn.

      Yes but I trust the NSA to safeguard the integrity of the National Dick Pic Database. I can’t say the same for my ISP.

        The NDPD is a strategic resource and there is little doubt it is guarded jealously by the boys at Ft. Meade

      I know this isn’t the point of your comment, but seeing “making sure your wife doesn’t get suspicious” reminded me that some people actually hide such things from their partner.

      I find it a pity that some feel the need to hide their browsing habits from their S.O.

      I feel lucky to have married a person who loves knowing all the depraved stuff I enjoy so they can incorporate it into what we enjoy together.

      Honesty and communication are the bedrock of any relationship. I understand not sharing everything with every friend or family member… but if you can’t be honest regarding what you like with the person you literally decided to partner with for the rest of your life with whom to have sex… then who else in the world can you truly be honest with?

      Except some sites seem to use your IP, so if you’re both using the same WiFi, you’re going to get ads for other party. And for anyone else who used the same WiFi, too
