The ads are for: two online degrees which I don't need, (having an advanced degree that FB should know about) and one cheap TV offer, which I don't want since I don't watch TV.
I can see zero evidence of ads being targeted to me, even though I in the past I clicked "like" and "dislike" on ads in the vein hope they'd become more relevant or at least less offensive.
My friends posted complaints on my page concerning my "liking" of said ads since they hated Facebook using my name as a reference.
But main thing is, if FB is so great, why do they have same scam-ish/opportunist ads that Yahoo has?
(refreshing, I get the same sort of thing - one targeted to my geographical location - mass market products, FB stuff, NOTHING SPECIFIC TO WHAT I WANT).
FB, a billion dollar company that still has only "potential"...
Hah! I encountered the same majorly-mismatched... then got engaged -> married. When I left, I was still getting tons of "ENGAGMENT RING HEER"-level ads, despite being married.
I've actually never seen an ad, and I have a pretty complete profile online. I didn't even know they put ads on the user pages until a few weeks ago when I saw them on somebody else's.
