I don’t think this is the case. fairly recently I’ve seen the old “if you dont want to be tracked by facebook, then dont use it!!!” take on here from people who are supposed to know better.
Maybe not explicit, but if you told them I guarantee most people do not care at all, or people would be far more upset than they currently are.

Why would you want to see ads for things you don't want?" is hard to argue with until you realize there's no particular reason you have to see ads.
