Nah. I would hate to live in a country that bans personalized ads. It would be like living in the 90s watching cable TV seeing completely irrelevant tampon and baby ads as a single dude.

Personalized ads are much less annoying than the “spray-and-pray” noise we used to deal with.

It’s so much better having your phone listen to you when you talking about holidays and showing you airplane tickets for months to come

And how has ad tracking personally harmed you or even inconvenienced you?
