> It never seems to have occurred to them that their advertising engines could also be used to deliver precisely targeted ideological and political messages to voters. I still don't understand where the problem is, to be honest. It's not that political parties didn't advertise their messages in a targeted way before and, as long as both sides are able to target their potential electors, it's normal political propaganda. (or maybe the problem is "Trump won and we can't just accept that"?)
