I may be in the minority here, but I don't mind Facebook ads particularly because they track me so much that the ads are very well-tailored. There's nothing annoying to me about relevant advertisements and I've found decent stuff before. The ads for crappy pay-to-win flash games in the sidebar, on the other hand...

Your tailoring from Facebook might be unique or mine is. I find the stuff they serve up just plain wrong. Or, it's one sided and I see the same ad over and over and over again.

Generally agreed, though the industry's obsession with retargeting makes this annoying sometimes. Facebook is much better targeted than most, especially when it comes to interests/hobbies/brands I'd be into, but it's still very crude if it tries to get any "smarter" than that, especially with retargeting. Retargeting: the ad technology that believes my home needs 54 couches and 36 vacuum cleaners.
