No, no, no, not the user-created ones. It's the ones you show that were paid by some third party in real life. Please, I don't want to see a woman in her undies when I'm on this website. That's not kid-friendly, that's very Liberal. Also, I don't really think that eight year olds have the necessity to buy some Lincoln MKZ.

I don't use Google, first of all, secondly, I don't save ANY browser history.

In that logic, I should be seeing memes now? What? Your data doesn't compute.

I use Mozilla Firefox and I always private browse. I've never searched any flash games on YouTube but ROBLOX keeps giving me ads to flash game websites (which I never clicked). It doesn't make sense for ROBLOX to use my history in ads if I privately browse. I think the ads are privately bought and paid for by other second/third parties.

There's something called "I'm not giving any credit card number or any PayPal account to some unknown corporate third party". Welcome to the twenty-first century.

First of all, ROBLOX is a kid-friendly site. Not a place for children checking into the Red Roof Inn or learning about how older men tighten their skin or how to buy a Lincoln MKC. Second of all, I don't want to pay for something when ROBLOX can remove silly ads.

He doesn't want extensions clogging up his browser. It's not a surprise that he doesn't know what AdBlock is.

"long ago when you didn't use private browsing"
as in ANY TIME on that SPECIFIC internet connection with any browser where you DIDN'T use private browsing whatsoever?
remember that?

to get firefox you need to download it with the computer's default browser
so you have used a different browser
google doesn't care if your browsing is private or not it will still use your info and junk

Just get Blur (tracker protection) and ublock (an lightweight ad-blocker).
Problem solved.

There are multiple solutions to this:

1. Get adblock. It's free, won't steal your personal information, and effective.
2. Ignore the advertisements and stop whining about them
3. Buy Builder's Club. It's literally only about 6usd which honestly isn't a lot. If you'd prefer to see user-made ads, then go ahead!
4. Stop browsing inappropriate websites. Whether or not you browse incognito, Google can and will collect your information to use them for advertisements. Sometimes they even use location, I think, to determine what advertisements could be suitable for you.

I highly recommend uBlock, actually. Doesn't use as much memory, I believe, make it slightly faster.

I ALSO recommend either Privacy Badger or Disconnect, both made by the EFF.

Google does store very consistent data. If you see strange ads for things like amazon or some random websites it's because you either used google to search for something in that particular category. I would Imagine that if you saw undies, that someone (maybe not even you) was looking at fashion or clothing. Google stores a lot of cookies. Cookies store thins type of data
