I wore combat boots every day for a long time, but haven't needed any since then. Are they trying to tell us something?

Someone says it's because cable shares bandwidth with other households.
Kind of creepy.

Thanks to DU's sidebar ads, I was able to buy a very rare part for one of my cameras. So...the ads are fine.
I'm just wondering: why THESE ads all of a sudden?

If not, get it and you won't see ads.

Your internet is saying you will need these combat boots based on trending things. Buy them. They might come in handy in the up coming protest season.
