I do not typically see ads. Youtube shows ads? People tell me that, but I don't see them.
I use a good ad blocker. I use sites like DW and Ao3 a lot. I have paid accounts other places. I see like 1/100th the amount of ads as the average American.
So, watching Leverage my ad viewing spiked. They kept showing me the ad about them magically replenishing dog food and your fridge and all that ... while in reality land I couldn't order from them last I checked because the companies they subcontract with to make deliveries now refuse to do business with them over driver safety concerns and other stuff.
Okay I just checked and my 'order now' button is no longer greyed out, but it was last night.
Still, it was funny to see the ad while they literally could not deliver me anything.
I decided to tweet about it and now I've got Amazon's customer service bot trying to talk to me on twitter. No bot, you cannot help. Not unless you can pay your damn employees more.
Anyway, ad targeting fail. Super fail.
