Ads so pervasive that virtually nobody had seen them until now.
- orf 9y agoIf by nobody you mean nobody outside the specific, targeted people Russia paid Facebook to show them to, sure. There are a lot of examples of them on the internet, but funnily enough only Facebook has the whole lot.
- jessaustin 9y agoThe reason none of us have seen them, could be that they were only targeted at the gullible dumbasses who could possibly vote for Trump? Maybe that was a special target group? Maybe it's the same group that gets ad-targeted for e.g. hemorrhoid cream and mobile home skirting? Frankly, given the revealed political preferences of FB executives, I'm pretty skeptical of any fruit from this tree.

- mkempe 9y agoThe incredibly effective Russian ads that cost $100k. As opposed to the nearly $2 billion spent by the candidates.
