Comment on Why Is Instagram Running Ads for a "Pet Incinerator"?
CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 9 hours agoOr it’s just an automated ad pulling a random product onto so one’s feed based on viewing history. Which then got passed around which caused the algorithm to start spreading the ad

I suppose if your viewing history includes bulk orders of veterinary supplies, this is probably a decently targeted ad.

It’s Ali Express, they could have viewed anything vent related and it pulled an item with the same tag. I viewed a customized tshirt with a funny saying and the name KIM on it (I’m not Kim nor do I have any one close named Kim)
I now get a million ads for stupid customized everything with KIM as the customizable name, just because I viewed one item to read what the joke on the shirt said
