First of all if youtube showed you this video just because of the Bitcoin sign then I am shit scared of this algo, is it so good that it can even intercept which screen you saw multiple times and then recommend likewise content or is it just because this too is a new music video?
Youtube probably showed me this video because I keep listening to such music and since this was relatively a new song it popped up on my screen.
The scariest algorithm is of Facebooks. If you are using their app and have done any kind of search on your mobile then they will know it and start displaying adverts related to your query.
I am not sure if there's a workaround for stopping these ads on facebook since I don't use it much but I do know how to stop these ads in our mobile device.
Google ads are the most scary things for me since it keeps popping up ads all over Android devices.
Thankfully we have ways to remove these personalized adverts from our device. On Android, we can reset the google ads from the settings which clears the ad data.
There is another way to remove Google ads, just stop using chrome browser. There are other browsers available on the play store like Opera, Firefox and Brave that block tracking scripts, cookies and block adverts. The problem with Facebook and its associated apps is that they control their environment and do not allow third-party apps to control it.
