  • I keep getting spam ads for viagra, male pattern baldness and obesity

    Have I been profiled or is everyone getting these?
    Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

    Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

      These ads surprise you why?

      Fortunately, my spam filters and ad blockers protect me from similar ads, because I'm sure they have profiled me as well

        They don't surprise me, I'm just have a laugh at myself, but you are/were in advertising Ming, how do they do it? or is it just blanket coverage? I never search those topics...

          A lot of it is based on search. Between Google and social media, they've got at least a general idea of (y)our demographics.

          But they want more. Especially GPS info so they can serve ads for businesses you're traveling near.
