 If you are a Chrome user, you've probably been been opted-in to Google's enhanced tracking system...

 @df4399c3 I might suggest one small edit:

To disable Google's "advanced" ad tracking, go to http://firefox.com and download Firefox for your platform.  When it launches, import all your stuff from Chrome, make Firefox your default browser, and then install uBlock Origin from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/

Boom, invasive tracking gone.

(For the nerds: Firefox is now performance-competitive with Chrome, and works for 99% of things.  It's nothing like it was in 2009ish when we all switched away.)
