targeted ads

dear oh dear

naughty boy...

Ashley Madison?

When I see ads here because I'm not logged in or something, mine are almost always video game related. So, uh, what have you been up to?

Oh no, I'm single.

Hit me up for stuff ATS. Boom chicka wow wow.

a reply to: kibric

Which is strange now that you brought targeted ads up... I've never used a dating app/site on my phone.

a reply to: ketsuko

Nothing, I swear! I usually get conspiracy ads... like a book to buy.

a reply to: ketsuko

But I remember that Ashley Madison site is where wedded people cheat. I didn't agree with that. I don't blame ATS, I may have been targeted by faulty means or ATS did let an ad run.... I dunno.

Now there is an ad for audio book of Harry Potter. I've never even seen the movie.

a reply to: kibric Actually, no. Teaching me a bad habit?

They're called "targeted ads" for a reason. They simply do not happen "accidentally." You don't have to 'go there' to trigger them. You simply have to visit another site that Ashley Madison thinks is compatible to what they are selling, perhaps a "partner" of theirs, perhaps something of "similar interests." There is no such thing as a coincidence.

Oh, porn probably. Heh *red-faced*

a reply to: schuyler

I didn't think ATS did targeted ads for some reason. The ads always seemed sponsored. Religious, conspiracy, military flashlight, etc...

Hahahahaha

I get ads for guitars and d'artagnan because I look at guitars and food.

You get ads for Ashley Madison because you like to spank the monkey and tell thousands of people about it. Nice Transparency, refreshing.

theres been other threads about this I think
try the search function

i'm pretty sure its an algorithm but the tech know how is beyond me


Edit

best response

well what happens is that when you join the site, the MIB who are assigned to monitor you, pass on relevant info to the owners and then they tailor ads specifically to you.

Also have you noticed the Black Helicopters yet?
