When I was young, I used to get a lot of targeted ads in Arabic trying to sell me boner pills. I read some weird shit on the internet, I know. But to say I was the opposite of their target demographic is almost an understatement.

About that same time, P&G did a big ad buy for family stuff, mostly baby but also just health stuff in general. I mean big ad buy: everyone got these ads, they were just put all over the internet for everyone period. There were a few products I didn't realize existed, and I bought them.

... Just sayin' to any ad guys here: that's how bad it was 10 years ago, and it's only gotten worse.
