Facebook advertises to an explicitly uninterested audience

#FacebookIsCorrupt

Facebook spends advertisers' budgets on advertising to people who expressly don't want to see them.

Would it seem logical that if I block your page I have no interest in it and hence don't want to see your adverts?  Yes?  And yet Facebook repeatedly spend advertisers' budgets on showing me adverts from pages I clearly don't want to see.  Let's just re-iterate that: Facebook continue to show me adverts from pages I have blocked, and implicitly do not want to interact with, in order to get their "impression count".

If not outright corrupt that is very very bent.
