Personally, I don't care that they're doing this (to me). I care more that they shouldn't be able to legally do it.
And also, as other people have said: it's ads that are the problem. Not personalized ads. Ads in general. They're ugly, bad, awful, battery-sucking, headache-inducing, loud, autoplaying, CPU-hungry, slow, very bad no good.
Seriously.
