Not sure what to make of the ads

[sufandu]

I've been getting workout equipment ads.

I was under the impression the ads were from personal web activity history, not cumulative board activity. FrancoPizza, where have you been recently?

Mines always hot single moms in my area and marriot ads. I don’t get it.

Does anyone else use the Brave browser? Even if I disable shields, ads, pop ups, etc… I still get the donation request. Any idea how to remedy this?

Omg this is an INSANE self tell and you don’t even know it

Maybe. I don't know. My Internet use is pretty limited. You can tell by my post count here.

When I don't pay the subscription or whatever the ads do get pretty weird, pretty fast.

I get tax law ads.

Does that mean safe, cool, or just lame?

Same

As a boomer, I gotta say this thread is embarrassing as hell.

Ads can be retargeting, demo based, or site based. Sites can block advertisers/categories as well.

Gotta run, my new wife's flight from Manila just landed.

Also, Stone Shlong will be the name of my next hair band.

You read that right.

Board: Can’t type swear-adjacent words, allegedly because we’re the first message board in history with advertisers that have beef with it.

Advertisers: Could I interest you in a stone schlong?
