Do others find that targeted ads are actually targeted towards them because it sure doesn’t seem like it to me. I spent last month obsessively searching about model kit painting techniques and airbrushing shading variations. I would expect that based on my clogged google history ads would recommend interesting model kits, or paint, or tools that I want that I haven’t bought yet. Instead all my ads are always TEMU womenswear suggestions, or Liberty Mutual insurance, or flights to cities and airlines I have not had interest in. Or over the summer when I spent weeks endlessly searching Mediterranean gardening and succulent design, not a single ad for plant suggestions, cheap nurseries, growing supplies, or gardening books. Seems like all that data Google and Amazon rip off me 24/7 isn't being used properly or somehow goes through “the algorithm” and makes it out with a terrible suggestion. Old TC: 🥜 New TC: !🥜

It just means your model paint sellers can’t afford the ad prices to target you. Temu pays more.
