we've all been there you're browsing the web and an online ad keeps following you everywhere you go well Google is finally giving you the power to shoo away and mute those pestering reminder ads these reminder ads usually come when you're looking to buy something online but then you change your mind and even though you don't want the item anymore it just follows you on every website nagging you to come back well you can now mute some of the ones being served up by Google although it's a kind of a hassle you see first you have to log on to your Google account and then go to the add settings section it's under personal info and privacy you then click manage add settings and Google is rolling out a new section inside this called your reminder ads here's the list of all the ads trying to lure you back you can accept the ones you want to banish well vanish for 90 days at least and if you mute an ad on your desktop it should also be muted when browsing on a smart phone the bad news is that ads may still follow you around this only applies to the ones that are served up by Google's ad service and you may still get ads that follow you on YouTube Gmail and Google search but Google does plan on expanding the mute function to more places in the coming months now back in 2012 Google did give users the power to mute one specific ad at a time by clicking the X in the corner of an ad and the search giant says that millions of people are muting ads daily will you take advantage of these new mute settings let us know in the comments I'm Bridget Carey and when this video is done I promise not to follow you around the web but you know it'd be nice if you came back to watch more videos I'm just saying no pressure or anything
