There seems to be a lot of political ads on this site as of late. I am NOT seeing them on any of the other apps I use, so they are NOT related to cookies specifically directed at me. Can anyone tell me how these ads show up here? Thanks.
These ads are probably geo-targeted. If advertisers think that the area where you live has a high percentage of people who still hasn't decided who to vote for, they are probably targeting that area for their campaigns and outbidding other advertisers. That would be my guess. Also, if you switch off cookies or otherwise prevent cookie-related ads from following you around, you're actually leaving more room for geo-targeted ads (rather than cookie-targeted), so that could be another reason for an influx of political ads.There seems to be a lot of political ads on this site as of late.

But, I noticed they are back again today on this site - for me anyway. UGH!There's a game I play and I was getting political ads on there, both state and national ones. It was making me crazy, but they also have stopped now.
