Interesting advertising choice by MNHQ

Edited: sorry, wrong thread.

🤦‍♀️

MN was advertising the Scientologists to me this morning! I wish I'd taken a screenshot.

Most online ads are not chosen by the publisher, they are allocated by the advertising platform and have more to do with you as an individual and your browsing habits

Yes, I'm aware MN don't chose the ads. They just sell the space, which is why I wasn't particularly fussed I just thought it was bizarre.

Now you've got me wondering what on earth I could have clicked on that would have made the Scientologists target me. My money's on Marks & Sparks.

Have you shown an ongoing interest in Neil Gaiman?

Don't think so. Is he a Scientologist? Or does he have a connection with M&S?

He's a child of Scientologists, raised in East Grinstead, and I have speculated on the thread(s) about him that the way he is reacting to the accusations (basically ignore them) is out of the playbook.

I got this on here once:

Well, i got one the other day for a product i have never used, will never used and have never ever even mentioned let alone searched for. Came under "MN recommends"

I did put a thread in site stuff but they took it down (presumably because i named the product in the title...

😆 thankyou everyone - I stand corrected, apologies to MNHQ
i do wonder what I’ve been doing to deserve that particular ad…..!
