Had to laugh when viewing that page. Main item: wire nuts.
Suggested Related items: Two diamond circular saw blades and a Bosch
drill/driver.

Gotta love software (or more likely, keyword coding) that comes up
with that combination. And I've seen ridiculous suggestions on plenty
of other sites and pages.

Amazon usually has relevant suggestions, but I've seen some crazy ones
there too.

One of the most memorable goofy suggestions was at Cabellas or some
other big sportsman store. I was searching for combination sunscreen
and bug repellant, which it found. The related item it suggested was
a 5 pack of pitons (the things mountain climbers pound into rocks to
secure lines).

Why even bother having such a feature if it can't work better than
that?

The wife of a coworker and close personal friend died six months ago of
hepatitis and liver cancer. A year or so prior, I was doing some
internet browsing on the topic and was surprised to find this sponsored
link:

"Looking for liver cancer? Find it on eBay."
