In Chrome, start at the three dots in the upper-right corner and go to Settings > Privacy and Security > Ad privacy. (Or just type chrome://settings/adPrivacy into your address field.) The ad privacy page lets you turn off Chrome's targeted ads.

- Or... maybe... just stop using Chrome? Use Brave? Use Firefox?
  
  No, Stop using Brave browser.
  
  If you're dumb enough to take that seriously, then you deserve the "politically correct" google to invade your privacy.
  
  Enjoy your crypto scam browser, bro.
  
  Ugh...you can dislike Brave or its disgusting CEO all you want but stop with the misinformation. The crypto stuff is entirely optional and Brave continues to be rated as one of the top browsers in terms of privacy.
  
  I never touched the crypto stuff in brave, and it's still an awesome, privacy focused browser. You're just too stupid to use it because the propaganda succeeded in brainwashing you to keep seeing ads. See, I'm the winner here.
  
  You keep living in your dumb propagandistic world. Have fun fighting ads while that's built-in in my browser.
  
  Instead of calling people who should be informed dumb, why don't you enlighten instead of bashing?
  
  You're confusing me with someone gives a flying fuck.
  
  I've realized that most accounts here are by teenagers and bots, leave alone dumb people who are so malleable that they just want to belong and any propaganda works on them. I'm not here to "change the world" and convince individuals of anything. I'm here to throw in the information, and then the intelligent and reasonable person will just catch it. You think I have time to convince a dumbass 15 year old why a browser that has built-in protection and privacy features and "just works" is a good idea? Fuck them all! Let them rot with their "politically correct" browsers.
  
  Hahaha, nice trolling attempt! Have a nice life.
- Oh. So if you go through some particular combinations of settings then maybe you can find a way to request that Google reduce the ways they use your personal information. I guess that makes it totally cool and fine? I don't think so.
  
  Much better to use Firefox and avoid Google ever getting that info in the first place. That way you don't have to constantly play whack-a-mole with deliberately confusing 'privacy settings' which don't even fix the problem anyway.
