Happy Amazon Prime Day! Amazon collects mountains of data about how you use the service, but there is a setting you can change to make it harder for the company to use that data to sell you more things. #OptOutOctober www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

It's still smart to be aware of these measures because companies like Facebook and probably Amazon still build data profiles on people who aren't members, based on friend activity on social media.

be careful that the amazon link is only valid for data on amazon us. If you visit the same pref page but replacing the .com with a .fr, you will see pref are back on. You have to deactivate on each website!

The included link was a good test of your Ad Blocker, AdGuard DNS or Pi Hole. "s.amazon-adsystem .com" was blocked for me. 😁 I needed to allow it, change my settings, and re-block!
