Is everyone else getting lots of social media ads encouraging them to join ASIO or am I being targeted? 🤣

Targetted .... Have you been mixing with the wrong crowd again? /s

Maybe they want me undercover to monitor activity on Lemmy. All those subversive Aussie.Zone posts that need keeping an eye on...

Can't be too careful. Especially when they're not aligned with the dominant greed is good capitalistic philosophical position.

I have always for as long as I can remember gotten ADF ads, I think it's because I look at lots of outdoorsy stuff.

I don't get social media ads so no 🙁 For once it'd be ads for something I'd be interested in!

I will say it is an improvement on all the ads for wills and pre-paid funerals I was being flooded with a while ago. I guess they decided they have some life left in me yet.
