    Maybe its a placeholder, trying to get you to “aspire” to domain ownership, as well as having that domain stand out.

    They don’t know all that they want to know about you for ad-serving, so until something sticks, they’ll make shit up. Browsing with even slight anonymity makes it apparent how much google didn’t so much buy DoubleClick, as become DoubleClick, as this is a strategy DoubleClick “perfected”, if not invented.

      i didn’t mention CrowdSupply or ever google it though and I installed the OS yesterday. I wonder if many CrowdSupply employees use Pop_OS from their office or logged in to their business account so google now thinks any Pop_OS user is a CrowdSupply employee lol
