And with all that tracking and spying on me, plus a boatload of voluntarily submitted data, and Facebook still can't/won't show me any relevant advertising. I mean, even from the corpo point of view. Whenever I open my feed to read something, I see a boatload of complete garbage ads. Like, they are neither enticing to me nor they are promoting something corpos may want to shove in my fae so I would remember, like some Coca-Cola or whatever product. But no, they have nothing.
I've just opened my feed in FB and let's see what ads will be today:
Group Dull Men's Club - some garbage meme dump, neither interesting nor selling any product or service.
Women emigrant group - I'm a male and in different location.
Rundown - some NN generated slop about NN industry
Car crash meme group from a different location.
Math picture meme group
LOTR meme group
Photo group with a theme I'm not interested
Repeat of the above
Another meme group
Roland-Garros page - I've never watched tennis or wrote about it. My profile has follows of a different sport pages altogether. None of those rise in the ads.
Another fact/meme group
Repeat
Repeat
Another fact/meme group
Expat group from incorrect location
And so on it goes. Like, who pays for all this junk? Who coordinates targeting? Why do they waste both their and mine capacity for something that useless both for me and Facebook? I would understood if FB had ads of products/services, or something that loosely follows by likes. But what they have is a total 100% miss. It's mindboggling.
I guess the meme group ads are to draw you in, once you follow them they get to push you actual ads and it costs them less because Facebook doesn't charge them, thinking you want to see the group's posts. It must work to some extent.
