Advertisers should be held partially responsible for the ads they agree to serve. As it is they just hide behind the curtain saying they are just serving the ads, that they don’t control them.
Maybe they should be held responsible for incidents like this and malware ads sent via their system. They are the only reason that ad is being seen by the public.

I’ve experienced the same. My whole feed is basically that these days, and you would think that people would keep it professional. I think actual ads, plus the crazy levels of nationalism, almost everyone being indoctrinated in the IDF, and most Israelis knowing someone who has been impacted, explains it, but boy is it annoying when you’re trying to do anything career related.

There was a time when propaganda was loads of printed papers thrown from warplanes. Now they shot right to your face when you want to check the weather in the morning from your phone.
That 2010 stock photo. Angry Birds on an iPhone 4. Simpler times.
I slap several levels of AdBlock on a handset before handing it to a child.
Yet somehow the US feels it needs to send billions in financial aid to Israel? Riddle me this, Batman.
