The google ads junk on almost every page you visit.

I have absolutely no idea what you mean. I see no ads.
There are lots of good search engines out there. I use DuckDuckGo.
You have to take responsibility for yourself and stop feeding your personal information to an evil corporation.

on the left side, I just have a button that says "subscribe" to Wizard of ID.
there are no ads.
Please for the love of god, use a better search engine. https://duckduckgo.com
Also, install Firefox with uBlock Origin. That is a really simple and effective ad blocker.
I also run NoScript, but that is outside of the scope of this discussion.

Plain three words:
not my computer
|
|
|
|
|
I do not understand what this means.
|
|
|
|
|
That means that I'm not going to install or configure things on a computer that is not my own.

If you are saying you are using a plain, unprotected browser, then you have bigger problems then ads. You are probably already infected with something. Ads are serious malware vectors.
Best of luck.

1. Install Firefox
2. Install uBlock origin
3. Block Google from the firewall
4. PROFIT!

How do you not use Google?
Bing is sh*t.

Did you not see my 10 posts about DuckduckGo?

May be sh*t, but I would rather choke on my own vomit than use Google/Facebook.

I use Google for most stuff. Evil empire - perhaps, but their sh*t works.
I do not do facebook, or snapchat, or twitter, or anything social media, minus LinkedIn.

My FireFox is set to wipe all cookies when I close the browser. No problems w/CP setup. I would imagine they'd be kept on CP's side - or so it seems.
As for Ads, I added Addblock+ to FireFox and they go away. Actually, you need to enable them on CP if you wish to do certain things, like having rollover of a users name show their image, etc.
You may also get so airplay out of BetterPrivacy and Ghostery.

Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
