You get targeted by advertisements for institutions offering degrees in Christian studies or some such thing, because you're an atheist.
I fixed that quote for you, because advertising is often targeted to the opposite demographic for various reasons.
Just try enjoying your favorite show on radio or regular TV, and you'll perceive ads for stuff you would never touch, but they are paying good $$$ to support that show you like, and to get in front of everyone possible, and perhaps wear you down with brand recognition and exciting jingles to influence your buying decisions in a moment of weakness.
However, targeted advertising may know exactly what you like, and be an effective means of call-to-action and conversion to sales.
On the back end, Meta advertisers fill out a list of audience interests and demographics. So yes, if the advertisements and their buyers were documented, Meta should also have sales info on the intended audiences.
