Musing out loud: I wonder if FB knows who the Cambodian elite are, and have targetted marketing for them, probably in English.

Geez, if I had a social network and no morals and no fears of getting caught (or the fines are cheaper than the possible profits), I'd quietly try to sell "eyeball access" to high net-worth invidivuals, who I can easily find in the database. Although who'd want this access, aren't Facebook ads just mostly scams nowadays?

(I just realize I get a lot of ads on Instagram, and most of them look legit enough)
