   Many of the ills of today’s internet have a single thing in common: they are built on a system of corporate surveillance. This Data Privacy & Protection Day, we're calling for a ban on the targeting of ads based on our online behavior. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2022/03/ban-online-behavioral-advertising

     I have seen influencer's advertising betterhelp for helping people with mental illness and selling info to advertisers.

     maybe this is applicable to online activity too, by the user's posting their day or like that.

     Ban Online Behavioral Advertising, please Mr. #facebook and Mrs. #tiktok

     Such targeting supercharges the efforts of fraudulent, exploitive, and misleading advertisers. It allows peddlers of shady products and services to reach exactly the people who, based on their online behavior, the peddlers believe are most likely to be 🤪vulnerable to their messaging. Too often, what’s good for an advertiser is actively harmful for their targets.
