Yep, I used to get ads like that all the time during my cab driving days.

I would often ponder on how they made any inferences out of my location data because I went to so many different places. There were definitely patterns, hauling around the same people once you learn their schedule is a big part of the job, but using it to sell me stuff is worthless.

Now that the youtubes have taken up the adblocker fight I still get all sorts of ads for medical stuff that has no direct relation to me. I do try to keep up on all the complicated "don't track me, you fucking stalkers" clicky buttons they like to add so perhaps I just fall into age group where their ad dollars shine, dunno?
