It's not just ads. FreeCodeCamp has a good privacy policy and no ads that I've noticed, yet when I leave the site, multiple Stripe cookies follow me. I assume Stripe is a method to donate to the site, but I haven't looked at or clicked on anything payment-related.

It's possible that FreeCodeCamp don't even know this is happening. I read an article by someone who has his own website where he talks about discovering that Stripe was following his users around.
