Targeted advertising, what do you see?

I'm getting the top banner advert on ATS this week suggesting I take a vacation in the place I actually live lol.
To be fair, I'd recommend it but I wonder how the adverts even know where I live, I guess search history, at least it's not STD dating like facebook is hitting me with lol.
I've never searched anything about STD's, maybe fb knows something I don't.
Anyway, what adverts are you being targeted with, anything interesting or unusual?

STD dating? Yuck. I'm drinking and I'm still grossed out.

Lol, I know, didn't realise it was actually a thing but on retrospect it seems a great idea for anyone afflicted, can't catch the same thing twice!

Nothing. Because I use Brave Browser.

Ah I don't mind adverts to be honest, pop-ups can be a wind up though, especially when 'closing' them just opens more.

You actually look at the ads? Do you watch tv commercials too?

None.
I use Adblock Plus and Disconnect.

I'm not getting any ads.
Perhaps they know that I can't afford a vacation again, just yet...
Let us know how the date turns out though!

I'm using the new and improved, touch me there and you'll feel my axe in your groin browser.

I'm not seeing any ads these days for some reason, but this is a fun question so I'm interested to see what people report.

I never see any ads because I adjusted the server here in Langley.

Server?

I get a lot of optics (firearms) and over 40 dating...somebody cant figure out Im married. And the optics adds are moronic as they appear after a purchase, its more like " see what you already own?"

Server?

It's a thing with computer stuff on it.

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

Attached to a server connected to
the secret one in Langley?

a reply to: BotheLumberJack


I probably shouldn't have said anything about that. What I should have said is this place has nothing to do with the CIA.

Chinese porn and ball gags.

Don't I know it. But don't tell anyone I'm with them or all hell would break out.

Move on from the midgets, eh?

I don’t see any Ads on my tablet. My VPN blocks them all.
