Interesting comments.
>>> "Their sales...wasn't working."

I don't think I implied that it didn't work at all. I stated that it 
doesn't work for me, and I would figure not to be the only person it 
doesn't work for. I suggested that it might be worthwhile to let people 
opt-out of that sort of tracking or limit its prevalence on their logged 
in view. I like to do the browsing and don't like the "push" unless I am 
in the mood for assistance. This goes for in-store and on-line browsing 
and purchasing. 

As for "lying" to Amazon. Please choose your words with more care. It is 
not inconceivable that a user would look up gifts and browse content not 
typical to their own pursuits. They should not be penalized by then having 
to sort through their own user experience later on with recommendations 
for additional blenders, watches, socks, etc., that they may have been 
looking at for another reason. Nor should they have to log out to protect 
themselves from having those searches retained by Amazon. In the privacy 
of my home, I shouldn't have to log out of any environment where the 
"one-click" buy experience is promoted as feature.

Let's talk about sites "spying" regardless of whether nor not a user is 
logged in.
And I think users know themselves well enough to know if they want to be 
"tracked" or not.
And when they do, they turn the option on to have Freddy Amazon follow 
them down the street.

It is an experience that could be improved or enhanced, allowing the user 
more control.
