    These adverts about single women (not even Ukrainian) keep popping up on my YouTube feed.

    I have not watched a single video about this, have displayed no interest in dating apps or dating in general online (offline is a different story), hell I don't even watch porn! But because the algorithm has figured out I'm a single man it shoves these adverts in my face.

      I get these ads and I'm in a long term committed relationship. I have all ad personalization turned off though so it may just be the newest round of ads being blasted out there

        So you can't even trick the algorithm that way? They advertise this to people in a relationship too? That's a bit scummy, seems like a corporate way to encourage cheating and whatnot.

    I'm not sure when this happened cos I never consciously noticed it at the time, but I swear there was a crossover point when ads like these stopped being exclusive to explicitly adult sites?

    Remember when some Chinese people posted similar stuff on their social media and westerners got upset even though the posts were taken down before they were even aware of them

    Meanwhile, in the west people pay to make these advertisements and no one does anything about it. But you won’t hear a peep

    Let yourself be happy

    On its own that sounds wholesome

      I'M not the issue regarding my being happy. I have all of Star Trek and classic Simpsons box sets. I've got happiness handled. It's other dudes who make me do things that aren't star trek or Simpsons related that are fucking this up for me.

    I keep getting these damn creepy ads. I honestly hope they are just scams because I fear there is human trafficking involved otherwise.
