Google adds opt-out to ad targeting in Market

All of you privacy fiends out there will appreciate this one. In the Android Market’s latest update, Google has added the option to remove yourself from targeted ads.

It’s a small gesture, but definitely worth taking a look at, especially if you’re one who values privacy. I never click on AdMob ads (unless by accident), but it’s nice to be able to control your experience a bit more. This isn’t getting rid of all ads but, rather, "interest-based ads" that are targeted specifically for you.

We can’t do much about your creepy browsing habits. But at least this way, when the fedora-clad men all come to our doors, they won’t know I prefer the Xoom to the Galaxy Tab. Thanks, Chris!
