I play a Scrabble-esque game on my cell/mobile. Every time I make a move, an advert pops up that I have to suffer through because I am too cheap to pay for an ad-free version of the game. Normally the advert is a video advertising another game or a TV show.

Today the pop up has turned into an Amazon advert for World Peace is None of Your Business. It was such a shock to see Morrissey pop up in front of me after getting a disappointing result from a triple word score. I'm sure he would have a few choice words about my limited vocabulary.

Advert is attached for your viewing pleasure.

The sad thing is they were advertising to people who were already going to buy the album. Lol. Such a waste.
 
I fell for the cookie trick, but that was months ago. I've grown as an internet user since then. And as a person. Knowledge is power, people.

thats actually really is funny in this case. i get targeted ads for other products and demographics, in most cases, but here it could have maybe used a bit of aiming at the unsure or unaware.

I never started receiving ads from iTunes advertising the pre-order of 'World Peace Is None of Your Business' until I...pre-ordered 'World Peace Is None of Your Business' from iTunes.
