This! My fb news feed is heavily spammed by products a few of my friends 'liked'.
Making the situation worse:
- Some ads, one example for me is TD Bank, are shown repeatedly and redundantly months after months. You'd think they would know I am not interested by now.
- On 4.7" screen phone, these are almost full screen ads.
- I'm pretty sure the people who 'liked' these companies aren't aware they are continuously spamming me.
I usually don't mind a few ads if it will pay for a free service and when they are well targeted I might even click on them. Just the other day, a fb ad reminded me to go to a delicious local burger place I don't enjoy nearly often enough. However the current level of ad aggressivity is way past the limit of what is acceptable.
