If you login to google once, some cookies may keep your identity. Ditto facebook, amazon... Amazon finds out the google searches you do and can send you emails about "based on your searches, perhaps you'd like to look at these:"
I don't have a google account because I don't (no longer) trust them. But how do amazon follow my google searches? A link would be fine.
I don't have one, just that I noticed they do by the effects. I guess they have scripts loaded on the pages you open that tell them, maybe from adverts.
It stopped when I prohibited FF from accepting any amazon cookie; then to open Amazon I use a different FF profile, where cookies are accepted. Similarly, to login to google I use yet another profile.
