I hate it, but also, I once bought towels online and the company from which I bought them has emailed me about EXCITING NEW TOWEL DEALS every day for the last three years. So we can handle this!

I feel like the ad serve spyware has done one good thing in my life. And that was when I posted "I love you Kamala, but for the love of God please ask people/PACS/orgs to stop texting me for 24 hours!" the texts did cease for a couple of days.
