It's called "indirect targeting". Companies can download huge databases of names, and upload them into their Google Adwords account and whenever someone searches those names, it triggers their ad.

Quite simple to accomplish actually (pretty cool huh!)

Google is weird like that.

I'm sure there are TONS of people in this world that do the same thing and have a conviction for rape or murder.

Its just a coincidence of someone with the same name as you.

Its a search engine made to search for information, not to spy on yourself.

The camp might have someone with the same name as you. When I google my name (not Trinity) I get a country.

Have you done searches for ADHD in the past?
Does your computer know your name?
Is it possible that the computer knows your interests?

This is my non-computer literate guess.

Ooops, there goes a chicken.
