Youtube recommended for you, is google spying or just a great feature ?

recently i started seeing youtube recommended videos on the you-tube homepage though i never looked at those videos as i always just use youtube video search bar to search the videos, but today when i saw those recommended videos i was amazed to see all the videos were interest of my subject for a moment i was shocked how the hell youtube matched all the videos according to my interests that to with 100% match?

though most of the time i use youtube to listen trance numbers, friends forwarded links but majority of the time i search for videos about UFO,conspiracy theories, occult, alternative science and other mystery related stuff and i personally don't care because i believe google will not be evil at-least in india and i do not use internet for anything that is seriously secretive that needed to be spyed, internet is my second home just to have fun for sometime.

and coming to the youtube new recommendation feature i think its just a small automated process to suggest videos based on user search which is extracted and based from youtube search cookies in the browser what ever it is what do you guys think about this new feature did the recommendation matched your taste?
