"some of the ads I get hit with would make many folks blush"
I'm guessing the "likes" you have that cause the targeted ads to hone in on you would also make many folks blush.
At least, before I shut mine down some months ago, I had plenty of interesting likes but I never had any ads that didn't match my content.
- josh2600 13y agoI appreciate your insinuation about my "likes". I don't really have anything "liked" on my Facebook but please, go ahead and tell me about how my personal preferences are affecting my online experience. I'm happy that your anecdotal experience was different from mine, but your empirical evidence does not undermine mine. Good day sir.
- illuminate 13y agoFacebook tends to base these ads around collected data and demographics, the targeting is not generally random. Perhaps other sites you've browsed that share data with Facebook's advertising network? I suppose there's also the possibility of malware replacing FB's ads with their own.
