What kind of social media ads are people getting that fits this narrative? I've counted first 10 ads on my FB feed (and I had to scroll for a while)
1 Four Seasons Hotels
2 Terra Kaffe - had to google them, $1300 Espresso Machine
3 iPhone case, according to ad reviewed by Wirecutter and MacWorld
4 Monos Carry-On Suitcase that looked like any other suitcase
5 ClubMed
6 Philips Sonicare toothbrush
7 Volvo XC90 Hybrid
8 WSJ subscription
9 LaunchDarkly - feature flags SaaS
10 Sotheby's Finest Scotch auctions
I guess 3 and 4 could be an overhyped junk, but not everything.
- technion 4y agoI'll add a data point to your search, here's my results of scrolling Facebook ads. This ignores the "suggested" posts from places like daily mail, which really, are also an ad. This list of ads looks really poor for anything claiming to be targeted. 1 the barbie movie 2 join the us military (I'm australian, and probably too old) 3 KFC 4 jb hifi. This definitely doesn't fit the narrative, this ad offers Apple hardware for less than the Apple store, something they've been threatened over before 5 nrma. A classic case of advertising to someone who has already purchased everything they sell 6 something entirely in a language I can't read. Well done Facebook. 7 vote for some Texas politician if you love God( Australian....) 8 something in Arabic 9 a presumably hacked account where a Persian rug gallery promotes an onlyfans account 10 nrma again Nothing on this list strikes me as overpriced or otherwise supporting this narrative, but damn the targeting is terrible and I'd hate to be paying for this stuff to get shown to me
- woobar 4y agoInteresting. In my case the targeting is not as bad. I.e. at least I can buy advertised products. Nothing like joining foreign army.
