Why does chess.com use spyware on people that are members? 

Why is it when they send you an email, and you try to return the email it tells you you can not unless you friend them?

Does anyone know anything about this?????

Why  does   chess.com   use spyware on its members?

I say spy ware, because every time I have been at a web site it shows up in the ads when I go on chess.com 

As in I was looking for a lamp and using "Mac Book Pro" in what is called "private window"  when I when on chess.com the next time that web site came up as an ad...... So I ask why do they use spy ware on their members

Almost all websites have cookies but most likely it's not chess.com. There are companies out there that find information about you (that you like chess) and sell this information to advertisers who then advertise to you based on what they know about you. It's very complicated and I may be wrong about what I said above but I think I got the gist of it. :)
