March 26, 2021March 26, 2021Leave a comment

By Charlotte Armstrong Sifting through Facebook’s ads is no longer like mining for gold, but rather finding yourself at a buffet being served things you never said you liked or wanted, and now your plate is suddenly overflowing.    Like most bad ideas, it started late at night.
