Nobody should be surprised by this. Google is not specifically tracking "porn habits", it's specifically tracking ALL habits. If you're using a Google device, product, or service, Google is tracking anything and everything they can.

A bit about myself:
I'm a geek, Linux enthusiast, developer, designer. Interested in InfoSec and open source software. Nice to meet everyone on @fosstodon
