Experienced this with a miscarriage in our family, it's the worst. Months and months later this stuff still follows me around the web like a taunting ghost.
The worst part of targeted advertising is when it becomes targeted haunting.
- Klathmon 8y agoI know it's not ideal, but if you go to the below URLs for Google and Facebook respectively, you can choose which categories you get ads about, and can even specifically "turn off" some categories of ads for you (it looks like facebook even allows disabling some categories for a specific period of time!) Again, it's obviously not perfect, but at the very least it can help the situation. https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/ https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/
- strict9 8y agothanks for this. People responding here with "just use an ad blocker" ... I have uBlock Origin and it's great but it only goes so far.
