Is there a non-negligible fraction of ads that do this for this to be an actual problem? Or is it another article riding the wave of the media crusade against Facebook? Genuine question, I don't have a Facebook account and I live in a country rather separated from the racial discrimination concerns present in the US.
- creaghpatr 9y agoI think the main beef is with PACs targeting political ads by race.
- Proven 9y agoThe percentage doesn’t matter. The problem is that the SJW mob is trying to tell FB how to run their business.
- michaelbuckbee 9y agoFacebook doesn't publish what interest categories and demographics go into their ads (aka you can't click on an ad in FB and see what led to it being shown to you). But we're talking billions of dollars a year in ads, of which real estate is a respectable percentage (FB is very good at doing geographic targeting). And you certainly also have these relatively unsupervised and opaque "interest categories" that are being presented to advertisers.
