When it started happening to me I was more or less indifferent other than to think: "why are they showing me an endless stream of ads for things I'm already a customer of?". I have more disposable income, so show me something new ferchrissakes.

That's another case I saw it. A year and a half ago I bought a cruise ticket from Holland America, and next thing I know I'm seeing Holland America ads across the internet.

At the time I thought they were just doing an ad blitz, because it was the time of year when people plan vacations for the summer ahead and might consider going on cruises. In hindsight it seems silly for them to spend money displaying ads to me, when I've already paid (a substantial sum of money) for their product.

It wasn't until the funeral service ads that I realized I was being targeted for having visited specific websites.
